Shiny Thomas - Some Father's Son
Seventeen miles from ManchesterSurprised that I'm on time
Thoughts tumble like Vegas dice
But only one thing on my mind
I'm not that boy anymore and time has told
Its troubles to all I knew
Seventeen miles from Manchester
And seventeen miles from you
That call I took in December
Blew a hole in my night sky
It was strange to hear your voice again
Even stranger your reply
"You're not that boy anymore your some fathers son
But I never saw you as such
Time can heal the pain inside
But also take the things we love"
There's beauty in this life I know
Its there for all to touch
Just don't linger too long or too much
From great heights we see the sights
But always search for more
Never stop to look behind the door
So take your time to look around
Take your time to settle down
Take your time just not too much
That day we spent on Soldiers Field
Weighs heavy on my mind
Too much wine in summertime
Always tended to blur the lines
You can tell them to keep their redemption songs
I never wanted to be free
Last night I dreamt of you again
And your voice it guided me
There's beauty in this life I know
Its there for all to touch
Just don't linger too long or too much
From great heights we see the sights
But always search for more
Never stop to look behind the door
So take your time to look around
Take your time to settle down
Take your time just not too much
