  • Soon you'll not remember anything
    But then someday neither will I
    Tomorrow though is nothing to fear
    Because father it's always today

    Life won't flash before your eyes
    Instead we'll fall away then melt like snow
    The secret storms of your wild youth
    Now just gentle breezes, warm and faint

    Soon you'll not remember anything
    But then some day neither will I
    Tomorrow though has nothing to fear
    Because father it's always today

    I can't ride on your cold tails again
    Like I always did as a little boy
    We are sand in all the old shores now
    My whole hand hanging onto your thumb
    There's a place in the palace of you
    We can always be standing like that
    We could hide in there, just as we were then
    Just my father and I am just your son
    Your son
    Your son
