Fathers And Sons

My father had so much to tell me

Things he said I had to know

Don't make my mistakes

There are rules you can't break

But I had to find out on my own

Now when I look at my own sons

I can see what my father went thru

Yeah, There's only so much you c an do

You're proud when they walk

Scared when they run

And that's how it has always been

Between fathers and sons

It's a bridge you can't cross

It's a cross you can't bear

It's the words you can't say

The things you can't change

Now matter how much you care

So you do all you can

Then you gotta let go

You're just part of the flow

Of the river that runs

Between fathers and sons

Your mother will try to protect you

Yeah she'll hold you as long as she can

But the higher you climb

The more you can see

Boy that's something I understand

One day you'll look at your own sons

There'll be so much that you want to say

That he'll have to find his own way

Down the road he must take

The course he must run

That's how it always will be between fathers and son

It's a bridge you can't cross

It's a cross you can't bear

It's the words you can't say

The things you can't change

Now matter how much you care

So you do all you can

Then you gotta let go

You're just part of the flow

Of the river that runs

Between fathers and sons

So you do all you can

Then you gotta let go

You're just part of the flow

Of the river that runs

Between fathers and sons
