Dad says it's striking
|
How I look like you
|
And how we share the same eyes
|
Yes, he swears I'm just a smaller form of you
|
|
But brittle bones and a wisp of white hair
|
Are all I see in that old rocking chair
|
|
Tell me, how long have you been around?
|
And how long ?il you're underground?
|
Tell me, how can a son be a father,
|
A mother a daughter,
|
And I be a man someday?
|
Well, I wonder
|
Yes I do, I really wonder
|
|
Could I belong to someone so old, who
|
Can only speak in whispers
|
And who cannot hear a single word I say
|
|
You're a man with a quivering hand
|
How we're connected I just can't understand
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
But when I think of how you smile
|
And the way you look at me
|
It isn't hard to recognize
|
That you belong to me, that you're a part of me
|
|
Tell me, how can a son be a father,
|
A mother a daughter,
|
And I be a man someday?
|
Well, I wonder
|
Yes I do, I really wonder
|
