Alioof - Fathers and Sons Lyrics

The day that you were born
I looked at your little feet
And I didn't think I would survive

Your bell like laughter
The music of your heart
You were the apple of my eye

But things are different now
We've drifted so far apart
Sometimes I wonder if
We were doomed from the start

Fathers and sons
Clouds and the rain
I hate that I caused you
So much pain

Fathers and sons
Unraveled and undone
I miss the olden days
When we were one

When I was a boy
You were my world
But then you just left

I raised myself
Raised my brother, had a son
And, well, I guess you know the rest

I promised myself that
I wouldn't be a father like you
But looking back now
I see my worst fear came true

Fathers and sons
Scratched old cassettes
I wish I could go back
And erase my regrets

Fathers and sons
Something lost, nothing won
I wish things were different
And we were one

He always tried to
Make me smile
But he only ever made me cry

Be abandoned me
For L'Manberg
Then went off and died

He will be remembered
For all the battles he fought
In the story of his life
I'm nothing but an afterthought

Fathers and sons
An angels ascension
All I ever wanted was
Some of his attention

Fathers and sons
The moon and the sun
I dream of a world where we're happy
Where we are one
