<pre><font size='+2'>THE LIVING YEARS lyrics MIKE AND THE MECHANICS</font><br>Every generation<br />
Blames the one before<br />
And all of their frustrations<br />
Come beating on your door<br />
<br />
I know that I`m a prisoner<br />
To all my father held so dear<br />
I know that I`m a hostage<br />
To all his hopes and fears<br />
I just wish I could have told him<br />
In the living years<br />
<br />
Crumpled bits of paper<br />
Filled with imperfect thought<br />
Stilted conversations<br />
I`m afraid that`s all we`ve got<br />
<br />
You say you just don`t see it<br />
He says it`s perfect sense<br />
You just can`t get agreement<br />
In this present tense<br />
We all talk a different language<br />
Talking in defence<br />
<br />
Say it loud, say it clear<br />
You can listen as well as you hear<br />
It`s too late when we die<br />
To admit we don`t see eye to eye<br />
<br />
So we open up a quarrel<br />
Between the present and the past<br />
We only sacrifice the future<br />
It`s the bitterness that lasts<br />
<br />
So don`t yield to the fortunes<br />
You sometimes see as fate<br />
It may have a new perspective<br />
On a different day<br />
And if you don`t give up,<br />
And don`t give in<br />
You may just be OK<br />
<br />
Say it loud, say it clear<br />
You can listen as well as you hear<br />
It`s too late when we die<br />
To admit we don`t see eye to eye<br />
<br />
I wasn`t there that morning<br />
When my father passed away<br />
I didn`t get to tell him<br />
All the things I had to say.<br />
I think I caught his spirit<br />
Later that same year<br />
I`m sure I heard his echo<br />
In my baby`s new born tears<br />
I just wish I could have told him<br />
In the living years<br />
<br />
Say it loud, say it clear<br />
You can listen as well as you hear<br />
It`s too late when we die<br />
To admit we don`t see eye to eye<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/the_living_years_lyrics-mike_and_the_mechanics.html" target='_blank'>THE LIVING YEARS lyrics MIKE AND THE MECHANICS</a></pre>

The Living Years lyrics

Send "The Living Years" Ringtone to your Cell

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your 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

Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
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
Talking in defence

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

So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It`s the bitterness that lasts

So don`t yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different day
And if you don`t give up,
And don`t give in
You may just be OK

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 new born tears
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
It`s too late when we die
To admit we don`t see eye to eye
