The Living Years - The Isaacs[00:00:00]

Every generation[00:00:11]

Blames the one before[00:00:15]

And all of their frustrations[00:00:20]

Come beating on your door[00:00:25]

I know that i'm a prisoner[00:00:30]

To all my father held so dear[00:00:32]

I know that i'm a hostage[00:00:35]

To all his hopes and fears[00:00:37]

I just wish i could have told him in the living years[00:00:39]

Crumpled bits of paper[00:00:50]

Filled with imperfect thought[00:00:54]

Stilted conversations[00:00:59]

I'm afraid that's all we've got[00:01:04]

You say you just don't see it[00:01:09]

He says it's perfect sense[00:01:11]

You just can't get agreement[00:01:14]

In this present tense[00:01:16]

We all talk a different language[00:01:18]

Talking in defence[00:01:21]

Say it loud say it clear[00:01:28]

You can listen as well as you hear[00:01:37]

It's too late when we die[00:01:47]

To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:01:57]

So we open up a quarrel[00:02:07]

Between the present and the past[00:02:12]

We only sacrifice the future[00:02:17]

It's the bitterness that lasts[00:02:22]

So don't yield to the fortunes[00:02:27]

You sometimes see as fate[00:02:30]

It may have a new perspective[00:02:32]

On a different day[00:02:35]

And if you don't give up and don't give in[00:02:37]

You may just be ok[00:02:40]

I wasn't there that morning[00:02:47]

When my father passed away[00:02:51]

I didn't get to tell him[00:02:57]

All the things i had to say[00:03:01]

I think i caught his spirit[00:03:07]

Later that same year[00:03:09]

I'm sure i heard his echo[00:03:11]

In my babys new born tears[00:03:14]

I just wish i could have told him in the living years[00:03:16]

Say it loud[00:03:25]

Say it loud[00:03:28]

Say it clear[00:03:30]

Say it clear[00:03:33]

You can listen as well as you hear[00:03:35]

It's too late[00:03:45]

It's too late[00:03:48]

When we die[00:03:50]

Oh when we die[00:03:52]

To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:03:54]

Say it say it say it[00:04:03]

Say it loud[00:04:05]

Say it loud[00:04:07]

Say it clear[00:04:09]

Oh say it clear[00:04:11]

You can listen as well as you hear[00:04:14]

It's too late[00:04:24]

It's too late[00:04:27]

When we die[00:04:29]

Oh when we die[00:04:31]

To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:04:34]

I wish i could have told him[00:04:49]

I wish i could have told him[00:04:54]

I wish i could have told him in the living years[00:04:59]
