To me, this is a song from Jack to his children. I believe he wrote it for them to listen to when they have grown. It seems to encompass his first pass at being a parent and the emotions that come with it.
I’m not a parent, but the emotional detail captured in the lyrics make you feel the weight he...
[Verse 1]
In my rear view, I watch you
Watching the twilight behind the telephone lines
Nothing to prove or to assume
Just thinking that your thoughts are different than mine
In my rear view, I watch you
And I give you your life, but you give me mine
I see you slowly swim away as the light is leaving town
To a place that I can't be, but there's no apologies
[Chorus]
Just go on
Just go on
There's still so many things I wanna say to you
But go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood that's moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start
[Verse 2]
I see your perfect little eyes watch the shadows of the clouds
On the surface of the ocean, out the window of a plane
I get nervous when I fly, I'm used to walking with my feet
Turbulence is like a sigh that I can't help but overthink
What is the purpose of my life if it doesn't have to do
With learning to let it go? Live vicariously through?
You could do the same, it's the least you could do
'Cause it's a lonely little chain if you don't add to it
[Chorus]
So go on
Just go on
There's still so many things I wanna say to you
But go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood and love
From the moment that we start
Just go on
Just go on
There's still so many things I wanna say to you
Just go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood that's moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start
