[quote=SNOWBIRD ,19699]The Living Years ... This is a poignant song sung by Mike & The Mechanics. It tells the story of a son who has disagreement with his father. When he decided to make up with his father, his father suddenly passed away. He regret that he did not tell his father when his father was alive. Now it is too late. A very touching song.The moral of the story : Life is short. Make the best of it when you are living. The Living Years - Mike + the Mechanics Every generationBlames the one beforeAnd all of their frustrationsCome beating on your door I know that I'm a prisonerTo all my Father held so dearI know that I'm a hostageTo all his hopes and fearsI just wish I could have told him in the living years Crumpled bits of paperFilled with imperfect thoughtStilted conversationsI'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see itHe says it's perfect senseYou just can't get agreementIn this present tenseWe all talk a different languageTalking in defence Say it loud, say it clearYou can listen as well as you hearIt's too late when we dieTo admit we don't see eye to eye So we open up a quarrelBetween the present and the pastWe only sacrifice the futureIt's the bitterness that lasts So Don't yield to the fortunesYou sometimes see as fateIt may have a new perspectiveOn a different dayAnd if you don't give up, and don't give inYou may just be O.K. Say it loud, say it clearYou can listen as well as you hearIt's too late when we dieTo admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morningWhen my Father passed awayI didn't get to tell himAll the things I had to say I think I caught his spiritLater that same yearI'm sure I heard his echoIn my baby's new born tearsI just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clearYou can listen as well as you hearIt's too late when we dieTo admit we don't see eye to eye [/quote]
