[00:00.00] 作曲 : Mike Rutherford/B.A. Robertson [00:29.70]Every generation [00:34.53]Blames the one before [00:39.36]And all of their frustrations [00:44.01]Come beating on your door [00:49.14]I know that i'm a prisoner [00:50.85]To all my father held so dear [00:54.03]I know that i'm a hostage [00:56.49]To all his hopes and fears [00:58.59]I just wish i could have told him in the living years [01:08.88]Crumpled bits of paper [01:13.38]Filled with imperfect thought [01:18.63]Stilted conversations [01:23.01]I'm afraid that's all we've got [01:28.47]You say you just don't see it [01:30.72]He says it's perfect sense [01:33.12]You just can't get agreement [01:35.73]In this present tense [01:37.68]We all talk a different language [01:40.77]Talking in defence [01:46.74]Say it loud, say it clear [01:59.88]You can listen as well as you hear [02:09.33]It's too late when we die [02:15.12]To admit we don't see eye to eye [02:26.58]So we open up a quarrel [02:31.47]Between the present and the past [02:36.12]We only sacrifice the future [02:41.91]It's the bitterness that lasts [02:46.68]So don't yield to the fortunes [02:49.20]You sometimes see as fate [02:51.36]It may have a new perspective [02:54.30]On a different day [02:56.31]And if you don't give up, and don't give in [02:58.41]You may just be o.k. [02:58.89]Say it loud, say it clear [03:24.57]You can listen as well as you hear [03:25.23]It's too late when we die [03:33.33]To admit we don't see eye to eye [03:45.66]I wasn't there that morning [03:50.01]When my father passed away [03:55.50]I didn't get to tell him [03:59.94]All the things i had to say [04:05.43]I think i caught his spirit [04:07.77]Later that same year [04:10.17]I'm sure i heard his echo [04:12.15]In my baby's new born tears [04:14.73]I just wish i could have told him in the living years [04:24.45]Say it loud, say it clear [04:35.28]You can listen as well as you hear [04:46.20]It's too late when we die [04:51.69]To admit we don't see eye to eye
