You, who are on the road Must have a code that you can live by And so become yourself Because the past is just a goodbye Teach your children well Their father's hell did slowly go by And feed them on your dreams The one they picked, the one you'll know by Don't you ever ask them why? If they told you, you would cry So just look at them and sigh And know they love you And you, of tender years (You dear, do you care?) Can't know the fears that your elders grew by (Do you see? You must be free to) And so please help them with your youth (Reach your dreams of true beginning) They seek the truth before they can die (Make a [incomprehensible], [incomprehensible] a living) Teach your parents well Their children's hell will slowly go by And feed them on your dreams (Oh, ho) The one they picked, the one you'll know by Don't you ever ask them why? If they told you, you would cry So just look at them and sigh And know they love you
