Peter Gabriel - Father, Son lyrics

[Peter Gabriel - Father, Son lyrics]

Father, son locked as one
In this empty room spine against spine
Yours against mine
Till the warmth comes through

Remember the breakwaters down by the waves
I first found my courage
Knowing daddy could save
I could hold back the tide

With my dad by my side dogs, plows and bows
We move through each pose
Struggling in our seperate ways
Mantras and hymns unfolding limbs
Looking for release through the pain

And the yogi's eyes are open
Looking up above
He too is dreaming of his daddy's love
With his dad by his side
Got his dad by his side

Can you recall how you took me to school
We couldn't talk much at all
It's been so many years and now these tears
Guess I'm still your child

Out on the moors we take a pause
See how far we have come
You're moving quite slow how far can we go
Father and son with my dad by my side
With my dad by my side got my dad by my side
With me
