Yusuf / Cat Stevens (Son)

It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it easy You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down If you want, you can marry Look at me

I am old but I'm happy

How can I try to explain?

When I do, he turns away again It's always been the same, same old story

From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way And I know That I have to go away I know

the times that i've cried keeping all the things i knew inside it's hard but it's harder it's

If they were right, I'd agree But it's them they know, not me Now there's a way And I know that I have to go away I know I have to go I thought, I think this might work.

Thank you.

Oh, all the times that I've cried Keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it

If they were right, I'd agree But it's them they know, not me Now there's a way And I know That I have to go away I know

How can I try to explain?

Cause when I do he turns away again It's always been the same Same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way And I know that I have to go away I know

I have.

Keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it If they were right, I'd agree But it's them they know, not me Now there's a way And I know that I have to go away I know I have to go
