Cat Stevens - Father & Son lyrics

Father

It's not time to make a change

Just relaxtake it easy.

You're still youngthat's your fault

There's so much you have to know.

Find a girlsettle down

If you want you can marry.

Look at meI am oldbut I'm happy.

I was once like you are nowand I know that it's not easy

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

But take your timethink a lot

Whythink of everything you've got.

For you will still be here tomorrowbut your dreams may not.

Son

How can I try to explainwhen I do he turns away again.

It's always been the samesame 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.

Father

It's not time to make a change

Just sit downtake it slowly.

You're still youngthat's your fault

There's so much you have to go through.

Find a girlsettle down

If you want you can marry.

Look at meI am oldbut I'm happy.

(son-- away away awayI know I have to

Make this decision alone - no)

Son

All the times that I criedkeeping all the things I knew inside

It's hardbut it's harder to ignore it.

If they were rightI'd agreebut it's them you know not me.

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

I know I have to go.

(father-- stay stay staywhy must you go and

Make this decision alone? )
