David Knopfler - A Father And A Son lyrics

rate me

A father and a son

Down the road they come

To stand at last together

To stand at last alone

At the place that they call home

And to talk about whatever

To talk about whatever

Until time becomes undone

Unchiselled and unborn

Before the lines of light

were written on the dawn

Called forth from memory

And from memory came song

And we became as one

A father and a son.

Sound became the form

From form the dream was borne

The dream became the dreamer

As real as anyone

In the well spring of such sanity

We find we have begun our new day,

Watching mountains moving

Because a father loves a son

A song of love is sung

And the dance of life goes on.
