My Father's Son

歌詞

When I left home I thought this bridge was burning Crossed the line and there was no returning I thought I was free But now I know that it takes more than wheels Back across the county line past the same old welcome sign Seems like nothing's ever changed No matter where I go, no matter where I've been No matter what the cost, no matter what the sin Demons that I've fought, the battles that I've won Loves that I've lost, the distances I've run I'm still my father's son Now Courtney stayed here and watched the summers pass He's got a wife and a couple of kids And a life as smooth as glass But he dreams about the things he missed Thinking that there's something more than this He don't know he's got it made There's always something that you trade And some things you'll never change No matter where I go, no matter where I've been No matter what the cost, no matter what the sin Demons that I've fought, the battles that I've won Loves I've lost, the distances I've run I'm still my father's son It doesn't seem that long ago This town was my whole world You know I thought that I could leave it all behind But the truth will find us and the ties will bind us No matter where we try to hide Didn't know I had it made There's always something that you trade And some things we'll never change, never change No matter where I go, no matter where I've been No matter what the cost, no matter what the sin Demons that I've fought, the battles that I've won Loves that I've lost, the distances I've run I'm still my father's son I'm still my father's son
