The Living Years (有生之年) - James Last (詹姆斯·拉斯特)[00:00:00]
Every generation[00:00:29]
Blames the one before[00:00:34]
And all of their frustrations[00:00:39]
Come beating on your door[00:00:43]
I know that I'm a prisoner[00:00:48]
To all my father held so dear[00:00:50]
I know that I'm a hostage[00:00:53]
To all his hopes and fears[00:00:55]
I just wish I could have told him[00:00:57]
In the living years[00:01:00]
Crumpled bits of paper[00:01:07]
Filled with imperfect thoughts[00:01:12]
Stilted conversations[00:01:17]
I'm afraid that's all we've got[00:01:21]
You say you just don't see it[00:01:26]
He says it's perfect sense[00:01:29]
You just can't get agreement[00:01:31]
In this present tense[00:01:34]
We all talk a different language[00:01:36]
Talkin' in defense[00:01:38]
Say it loud say it loud[00:01:45]
Say it clear say it clear[00:01:49]
You can listen as well as you hear[00:01:54]
It's too late it's too late[00:02:04]
When we die when we die[00:02:09]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:02:13]
So we open up a quarrel[00:02:23]
Between the present and the past[00:02:28]
We only sacrifice the future[00:02:33]
It's the bitterness that lasts[00:02:38]
So don't yield to the fortunes[00:02:43]
You sometimes see as fate[00:02:46]
It may have a new perspective[00:02:48]
On a different date[00:02:50]
And if you don't give up[00:02:53]
And don't give in[00:02:54]
You may just be ok[00:02:55]
Say it loud[00:03:01]
Say it clear say it clear[00:03:06]
You can listen as well as you hear[00:03:11]
It's too late[00:03:20]
When we die when we die[00:03:25]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:03:31]
I wasn't there that morning[00:03:41]
When my father passed away[00:03:45]
I didn't get to tell him[00:03:50]
All the things I had to say[00:03:55]
I think I caught his spirit[00:04:00]
Later that same year[00:04:02]
I'm sure I heard his echo[00:04:05]
In my baby's new born tears[00:04:07]
I just wish I could have told him[00:04:09]
In the living years[00:04:12]
Say it loud say it clear[00:04:18]
You can listen as well as you hear[00:04:28]
It's too late when we die[00:04:37]
To admit we don't see eye to eye[00:04:47]
Say it loud say it loud[00:04:56]
Say it clear say it clear[00:05:01]
Say it loud say it clear[00:05:06]
Say it loud say it clear[00:05:15]
Say it loud say it loud[00:05:25]
Say it clear say it clear[00:05:30]
Say it loud say it clear[00:05:35]
Say it loud say it clear[00:05:44]
