Bangles - Song for a Good Son lyrics

rate me

A summer's day so long ago

A thousand boats dancing on the bay

I came to you inside a dream

We both held hands and fell into the water

You never claimed to know me well

The dark-eyed sonthe privileged man

You fond me bitteryou thought me cold

Well now I'm gonna make you understand

My mother diedmy father cried

He left me lonely by the waterside

Waterside so deep and wide

If I followmaybe I will find her

Beyond the salt and spray

The current carried her away

Beyond the salt and spray

The current carried her away

I can't outrun my destiny

Tell me who will sing a song for me

Darkness darkness cover me

By my own hands the way it has to be

My mother died my father cried

You will find me by the waterside

Waterside so deep and wide

If I followmaybe I will find her

If I followmaybe I will find her
