A Song for a Son lyrics

This a song for a son

This is a song for a sailor

The best I ever had

This is a song for a kid

This is a song for a tailor

Who stitched up my old heart

Who stitched up my old heart

And I

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come

This is a song for a dove

This is a song for a blown out bird

The kind that don't return to the nest

This is a song for a star

This is a song for a space invader

Who flew into the sun

Never to return

Never to return

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come

I am one of many more, many more to come

Many more to come

This is a song for a son

This is a song for a sailor

The son I never had

He sailed without a map

This is a song for that kid

This is a song for that tailor

Who stitched up my old heart

Before I broke it all

All apart

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come

I am one of many more, many more to come

Many more to come

You daughters of the revolution

Carry back your sons

Carry them back home

You daughters of the revolution

Carry back your sons home

This is a song for a son

This is a song for a sailor

The best I ever had

He sailed without a map
