David Lafleche - Everyday Son lyrics
[David Lafleche - Everyday Son lyrics]
I know it might get lonely
In the air you breathe
You wish time could stay frozen like
The pictures that you keep
Images never meant to last
So why don't you look beyond the past?
I know I'm often caught up spinnin' wheels
I wish time would just move faster
And never drag it's heels
It's clear that you're not
Drivin' at my speed
That doesn't mean you can't be
Keepin' up with me
Hold on tight if you can, Mama
I ain't no simple man, Mama
I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
I know you've had a hard
Time lookin' after me
I cross the lines, you roll your eyes
And we disagree
Like the time I took those brand
New boots playin' in the mud
And the time I quit my day
Job, you said, "What you doin', son?"
But we were never really outta reach
You best believe, best believe
Hold on tight if you can, Mama
I ain't no simple man, Mama
I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
Oh, won't you dance with me?
Share our insecurity
Don't be shy and dare to fly
You have so much give to give
A whole lotta life left to live
Don't be shy and dare to fly dare to fly
Hold on tight if you can, Mama
I ain't no simple man, Mama
I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
In the air you breathe
You wish time could stay frozen like
The pictures that you keep
Images never meant to last
So why don't you look beyond the past?
I know I'm often caught up spinnin' wheels
I wish time would just move faster
And never drag it's heels
It's clear that you're not
Drivin' at my speed
That doesn't mean you can't be
Keepin' up with me
Hold on tight if you can, Mama
I ain't no simple man, Mama
I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
I know you've had a hard
Time lookin' after me
I cross the lines, you roll your eyes
And we disagree
Like the time I took those brand
New boots playin' in the mud
And the time I quit my day
Job, you said, "What you doin', son?"
But we were never really outta reach
You best believe, best believe
Hold on tight if you can, Mama
I ain't no simple man, Mama
I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
Oh, won't you dance with me?
Share our insecurity
Don't be shy and dare to fly
You have so much give to give
A whole lotta life left to live
Don't be shy and dare to fly dare to fly
Hold on tight if you can, Mama

I know it's hard to understand
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
I ain't no simple one, but
I'm still your everyday son
Mama, please, hold on
