Love You Like A Son
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Early in the evening there's a sun in the sky
everybody's happy but there's a tear in your eye
the times I never wondered
the times I never knew
I'd live them all again
if I could live them all for you
And when the walls are broken
and when they're on your back
when its scapegoats that they're after
and they know you'll attack
just remember,boy in the silence of the night
something I never told you
I love you like a son
Later in the evening in the light of the moon
everyones found lovers ,its empty in the room
when polite conversation
goes screaming out the door
and understanding people
leave you lying on the floor
They ask me why
they ask me why
analyse it, analyse it
they ask me why
they ask me why
but don't tell
just don't say
