Ronan Keating - Father And Son

[Yusuf:]

It's not time to make a change,

Just relax, take it easy.

You're still young, that's your fault,

There's so much you have to know.

Find a girl, settle down,

If you want you can marry.

Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

I was once like you are now,

And I know that it's not easy,

To be calm when you've found something going on.

But take your time, think a lot,

Why, think of everything you've got,

For you will still be here tomorrow,

But your dreams may not.

[Ronan:]

How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again,

It's always been the same, same old story.

From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen,

Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away,

I know I have to go.

[Yusuf:]

I was once like you are now,

And I know that it's not easy,

To be calm when you've found something going on.

But take your time, think a lot,

Why, think of everything you've got.

For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

[Ronan:]

And all the times that I cried,

Keeping all the things I knew inside,

It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it. [Yusuf:][You're goin' make it…]

If they were right, I'd agree, [Yusuf:] [I know]

But it's them they know not me,

Now there's a way [Yusuf:] [I know] and I know

[Yusuf:] [You don't have to go away] That I have to go away.

I know I have to go. [Yusuf:] You don't have to go.
