[00:00.00]The Living Years (有生之年) - Mike & The Mechanics
[00:14.81]Written by：B.A. Robert
[00:29.62]Every generation
[00:32.55]
[00:34.47]Blames the one before
[00:37.69]
[00:39.17]And all of their frustrations
[00:42.87]
[00:43.81]Come beating on your door
[00:47.19]
[00:49.15]I know that I'm a prisoner
[00:50.88]To all my father held so dear
[00:53.96]I know that I'm a hostage
[00:56.36]To all his hopes and fears
[00:58.46]I just wish I could have told him
[01:01.64]In the living years
[01:05.76]
[01:08.89]Crumpled bits of paper
[01:11.19]
[01:13.20]Filled with imperfect thought
[01:16.67]
[01:18.49]Stilted conversations
[01:21.82]
[01:22.97]I'm afraid that's all we've got
[01:26.73]
[01:28.31]You say you just don't see it
[01:30.77]He says it's perfect sense
[01:33.10]You just can't get agreement
[01:35.56]In this present tense
[01:37.70]We all talk a different language
[01:40.70]Talking in defence
[01:45.31]
[01:46.74]Say it loud
[01:51.61]Say it clear
[01:56.61]You can listen as well as you hear
[02:06.30]It's too late
[02:11.35]When we die
[02:16.24]To admit we don't see eye to eye
[02:25.84]
[02:26.44]So we open up a quarrel
[02:29.78]
[02:31.43]Between the present and the past
[02:34.51]
[02:36.14]We only sacrifice the future
[02:39.62]
[02:41.33]It's the bitterness that lasts
[02:45.04]
[02:46.59]So don't yield to the fortunes
[02:49.12]You sometimes see as fate
[02:51.19]It may have a new perspective
[02:53.83]
[02:54.35]On a different day
[02:56.29]And if you don't give up
[02:57.87]And don't give in
[02:58.98]You may just be ok
[03:03.28]
[03:04.62]Say it say to say it loud
[03:10.15]Say it clear
[03:14.97]You can listen as well as you hear
[03:23.26]
[03:24.89]It's too late
[03:29.74]When we die
[03:34.62]To admit we don't see eye to eye
[03:43.82]
[03:45.50]I wasn't there that morning
[03:48.79]
[03:49.95]When my father passed away
[03:53.34]
[03:55.44]I didn't get to tell him
[03:58.15]
[04:00.00]All the things I had to say
[04:03.56]
[04:05.14]I think I caught his spirit
[04:07.19]
[04:07.75]Later that same year
[04:10.02]I'm sure I heard his echo
[04:12.19]In my baby's new born tears
[04:14.69]I just wish I could have told him
[04:17.63]In the living years
[04:21.78]
[04:23.04]Say it say to say it loud
[04:27.99]
[04:28.55]Say it clear
[04:32.40]
[04:33.53]You can listen as well as you hear
[04:42.37]
[04:43.25]It's too late
[04:48.18]When we die
[04:52.62]
[04:53.13]To admit we don't see eye to eye
[05:02.34]
[05:02.89]Say it loud
[05:07.15]
[05:07.84]Say it clear
[05:11.56]
[05:12.73]Say it loud
[05:16.87]
[05:17.61]Say it clear
