Every generation, blames the one beforeAnd all of their frustrations, come beating on your doorI know that I'm a prisoner to all my father held so dearI know that I'm a hostage to all his hopes and fearsBut I just wish I could have told him in the living yearsOh, crumpled bits of paper, filled with imperfect thoughtStilted conversations, I'm afraid that's all we've gotYou say you just don't see it, he says it's perfect senseYou just can't get agreement, in this present tenseWe all talk a different language, talking in defenseSay it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearYou can listen, as well as you hearIt's too late, it's too lateWhen we die, oh when we dieTo admit, we don't see eye to eyeSo we open up a quarrel, between the present and the pastWe only sacrifice the future, it's the bitterness that lastsSo don't give to the fortunes, you sometimes see his fateIt may have a new perspective, on a different dayAnd if you don't give in, and don't give in, you may just be okaySay it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearYou can listen, as well as you hearIt's too late, it's too lateWhen we die, oh when we dieTo admit, we don't see eye to eyeI wasn't there that morning, when my father passed awayI didn't get to tell him, all the things I had to sayI think I caught his spirit, later that same yearI'm sure I heard his echo, in my baby's newborn tearsI just wish I could have told him, in the living yearsSo say it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearYou can listen, as well as you hearIt's too late, it's too lateWhen we die, oh when we dieTo admit, we don't see eye to eyeSo say it, say it, say it loudSay it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearDon't give up, don't give in, and don't look back till it's too lateOh say it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearDon't give up, don't give in, and don't look back till it's too lateOh say it loud, say it clear, oh say it clearDon't give up, don't give in, and don't look back till it's too late
