Genesis - No Son Of Mine Lyrics
Well the key to my survivalWas never in much doubtThe question was how I could keep saneTrying to find a way outThings were never easy for mePeace of mind was hard to finAnd I needed a place where I could hideSomewhere I could call mineI didnt think much about itTil it started happening all the timeSoon I was living with the fear everydayOf what might happen that nightI couldnt stand to hear theCrying of my motherAnd I remember whenI swore that, that would be theLast theyd see of meAnd I never went home againThey say that time is a healerAnd now my wounds are not the sameI rang the bell with my heart in my mouthI had to hear what hed sayHe sat me down to talk to meHe looked me straight in the eyesHe said:Youre no son, youre no son of mineYoure no son, youre no son of mineYou walked out, you left us behindAnd youre no son, no son of mineOh, his words how they hurt me, Ill never forget itAnd as the time, it went by, I lived to regret itYoure no son, youre no son of mineBut where should I go,And what should I doYoure no son, youre no son of mineBut I came here for help, oh I came here for youWell the years they passed so slowlyI thought about him everydayWhat would I do, if we passed on the streetWould I keep running awayIn and out of hiding placesSoon Id have to face the factsWed have to sit down and talk it overAnd that would mean going backThey say that time is a healerAnd now my wounds are not the sameI rang that bell with my heart in my mouthI had to hear what hed sayHe sat me down to talk to meHe looked me straight in the eyesHe said:Youre no son, youre no son of mineYoure no son, youre no son of mineWhen you walked out, you left us behindAnd youre no son, youre no son of mineOh, his words how they hurt me, Ill never forget itAnd as the time, it went by, I lived to regret itYoure no son, youre no son of mineBut where should I go and what should I doYoure no son, youre no son of mineBut I came here for help, oh I was looking for youYoure no son, youre no son of mine - ohYoure no son - ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeahYoure no son, youre no son of mine - oh, oh...
