Father and Sun Songtext
von Cat Stevens

It′s not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young that′s your fault
There's so much you have to know

Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it′s not easy
To be calm when you′ve found something going on

But take your time, think a lot
Why, think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not


How can I try to explain?
When I do, he turns away again
It′s always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen, now
There's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know, I have to go

It′s not time to make change (Away, away, away)
Just sit down, take it slowly
You're still young that′s your fault (I know)
There's so much you have to go through (I have to make this decision)

Find a girl, settle down (Alone)
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

All the time that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It′s hard, but it′s harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree, but it′s them they know not me

Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
