Song for a Son Lyrics
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
This is a song for a kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old heart
Who stitched up my old heart
[Chorus]
And I
I am
One of many
Many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many
Many more to come
Many more to come
This is a song for a dove
This is a song for a blown out bird
The kind that don't return
To the nest
This is a song for a star
This is a song for a space invader
Who flew into the sun
Never to return
Never to return
[Chorus]
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The son I never had
He sailed without a map
This is a song for that kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old heart
Before I broke it all
All apart
[Chorus]
You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons
Carry them back home
You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons
Carry them back home
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
He sailed without a map
