The Living Years(Live) (Live) - Paul Carrack[00:00:00]
Every generation[00:00:36]
Blames the one before[00:00:41]
And all of their frustrations[00:00:46]
Come beating on your door[00:00:50]
I know that I'm a prisoner[00:00:56]
To all my father held so dear[00:00:57]
I know that I'm a hostage[00:01:00]
To all his hopes and fears[00:01:02]
I wish I could have told him in the living years[00:01:05]
Oh crumpled bits of paper[00:01:15]
Filled with imperfect thought[00:01:20]
Stilted conversations[00:01:26]
I'm afraid that's all we've got[00:01:30]
You say you just don't see it[00:01:36]
He says it's perfect sense[00:01:38]
You just can't get agreement[00:01:40]
In this present tense[00:01:43]
We all talk a different language[00:01:45]
Talking in defence[00:01:49]
Say it loud[00:01:54]
Say it loud [00:01:59]
Say it clear[00:02:01]
Come on say it clear[00:02:02]
You can listen listen as well as you hear[00:02:05]
It's too late[00:02:14]
It's too late when we die[00:02:18]
Admit when we die[00:02:22]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:02:25]
We open up a quarrel[00:02:36]
Between the present and the past[00:02:40]
We only sacrifice the future[00:02:45]
It's the bitterness that lasts[00:02:50]
So don't yield to the fortunes[00:02:56]
You sometimes see as fate[00:02:58]
It may have a new perspective[00:03:00]
On a different day[00:03:03]
And if you don't give up and don't give in[00:03:05]
You may just be O K [00:03:08]
Say it say it say it loud [00:03:13]
Say it clear[00:03:19]
People now[00:03:22]
You can listen as well as you hear[00:03:24]
Who it's too late[00:03:33]
Oh people it's too late[00:03:36]
Too late when we die[00:03:41]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:03:44]
I wasn't there that morning[00:03:54]
When my father passed away[00:03:59]
I didn't get to tell him[00:04:05]
All the things I had to say[00:04:09]
I think I called his spirit[00:04:14]
Later that same year[00:04:17]
I'm sure I heard his echo[00:04:20]
In my baby's new born tears[00:04:22]
I wish I could have told him in the living years[00:04:25]
Say it say it say it loud[00:04:33]
Say it loud[00:04:37]
Oh won't you say it clear[00:04:40]
You can listen as well as you hear[00:04:44]
Besause it's too late[00:04:52]
It's too late when we die[00:04:55]
It's too late when we die[00:05:00]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:05:03]
Say it say it say it loud[00:05:12]
Say it clear[00:05:17]
Oh say it clear[00:05:20]
Don't give up don't give me now don't you cause it's too late[00:05:24]
See everythings got die[00:05:32]
I think I called his spirit[00:05:36]
Don't you say it clear[00:05:40]
It's too late[00:05:43]
It's too late[00:05:46]
Oh say it clear[00:05:49]
It's late[00:05:53]
