Song For A Good Son Lyrics

Song For A Good Son lyrics

A summer's day so long ago

 A thousand boats dancing on the bay

 I came to you inside a dream

 We both held hands and fell into the water

 You never claimed to know me well

 The dark-eyed son, the privileged man

 You fond me bitter, you thought me cold

 Well now I'm gonna make you understand

 My mother died, my father cried

 He left me lonely by the waterside

 Waterside so deep and wide

 If I follow, maybe I will find her

 

 Beyond the salt and spray

 The current carried her away

 

 Beyond the salt and spray

 The current carried her away

 

 I can't outrun my destiny

 Tell me who will sing a song for me

 Darkness darkness cover me

 By my own hands the way it has to be

 My mother died my father cried

 You will find me by the waterside

 Waterside so deep and wide

 If I follow, maybe I will find her

 If I follow, maybe I will find her
