Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come beating on my door I know that I'm a prisoner To all my father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear Crumpled bits of paper Filled with imperfect thoughts Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see it He says it's perfect sense You just can't get agreement In this present tense We all talk a different language Talkin' in defense SongtexteChorus Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morning When my father passed away I didn't get to tell him All the things I had to say I think I caught his spirit Later that same year I'm sure I heard his echo In my baby's newborn tears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Chorus Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye (Thanks to LeAnn Dunn for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
