it's not time to make a change,
just relax, take it easy.
you're still young, that's your fault,
there's so much you have to know.
find a girl, settle down,
if you want you can marry.
look at me, i am old, but i'm happy.
i was once like you are now, and i know that it's not easy,
to be calm when you've found something going on.
but take your time, think a lot,
why, think of everything you've got.
for you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
(son)
how can i try to explain, when i do he turns away again.
it's always been the same, same 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.

look at me, i am old, but i'm happy.
(son)
all the times that i cried, keeping all the things i knew inside,
it's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
if they were right, i'd agree, but 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.
