I can't help but be like my father
But I've never been in a place like this before
To watch his eyes fill with water
Two years to the day since he last saw my mother
And now that he lives here alone
Is the love they had all but gone
It's better to have it and leave it
Then never to have it and need it at all
Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can't comprehend what I'm seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he's weak
So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I'll go with you now
I've seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I'm not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me
I can't help but be like my father
But I've never been in a place like this before
To have my eyes fill with water
Two years to the day since I last saw my love
And now that I'm left here alone
Is the love we shared all but gone
If someone loves you and leaves you
Well how do you know if their love lives on?
Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can't comprehend what I'm seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he's weak
So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I'll go with you now
I've seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I'm not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me
But I've never been in a place like this before
To watch his eyes fill with water
Two years to the day since he last saw my mother
And now that he lives here alone
Is the love they had all but gone
It's better to have it and leave it
Then never to have it and need it at all
Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can't comprehend what I'm seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he's weak
So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I'll go with you now
I've seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I'm not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me
I can't help but be like my father
But I've never been in a place like this before
To have my eyes fill with water
Two years to the day since I last saw my love
And now that I'm left here alone
Is the love we shared all but gone
If someone loves you and leaves you
Well how do you know if their love lives on?
Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can't comprehend what I'm seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he's weak
So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I'll go with you now
I've seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I'm not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me
