Say What You Mean
The boy was taught to look awayHe hid in his heart silentlyAnd watched the others wait and wait, and he saidWe are as fleeting as the dayAnd all this stuff, it covers usSo he scribble down a phraseSay what you mean to sayand stay who you arethough all around are riches to be wonI came here to beginand to hold on to the things this singing started fromand before I can stand I have to learn to runThe man hides away just like he's cursedOr troubled by some lucky beastThat caught him at his worst – now it's reversedrunning away, just like he’s lostHe found it was his dream to beThe thing we love but never see – So say what you mean, this timeAnd stay who you areBut stick around and have a little funThe soul you thought had leftIs not despondent or bereft, it’s only just begunLetras de cancionesand before it can stand it has to learn to runGrandpa had trouble trying to speakThe years had all washed over himHeart strong, but body weakFought in the war, but now he wanted peaceAnd the last day that I spent with himHis eyes they spoke to me, he saidsay what you mean, my boyand stay who you arebet you’d think I’d know bout this by nowThe world’s been holding out its armstrying to carry me from harmI’m still learning to growand it’s only now I know, you’ve got tosay what you mean, this timeand stay who you areand without counting, welcome in the dawnwe’ll all be blowing in the winduntil we’re barely there and all our hair is gone –shout from where you're standing onbefore we could stand we had to learn to run From Letras Mania
