What Do You Want Lyrics by Jani Liimatainen

My Father’s Son

0

[Verse 1]
Once you were a friend of mine
Once you had a heart
Once you knew right from wrong
But those days are gone
You fell with the wrong crowd
I felt I was left out
It came to an ugly end
When you fell down
Once there was a better time
Once you had my heart
Once we sang the same song
But those days are gone
Sometimes what we paid for
Is less than we asked for
I hope you’ll gеt what you need
But you won’t get it from me, so…
[Chorus]
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t a place to call you own
This ain’t your hеart, this ain’t your home
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t your song, this ain’t your throne
This ain’t your life, so sense the tone
Don’t need you near, don’t want your touch
Why are you here, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
[Verse 2]
Sometimes we’ll have to go
Sometimes say goodbye
Some things are meant to break
The pieces left behind
Some vows will be broken
Some wounds remain open
Some words we need to say
No matter how it hurts
No price will keep me here
No lie will make me stay ‘cause
Those words were heard
Time and time again
Sometimes what we paid for
Is less than we asked for
I hope you’ll get what you need
But you won’t get it from me, so…
[Chorus]
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t a place to call you own
This ain’t your heart, this ain’t your home
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t your song, this ain’t your throne
This ain’t your life, so sense the tone
Don’t need you near, don’t want your touch
Why are you here, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
Yeah!
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t a place to call you own
This ain’t your heart, this ain’t your home
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t your song, this ain’t your throne
This ain’t your life, so sense the tone
Don’t need you near, don’t want your touch
Why are you here, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
This ain’t a place to call you own
This ain’t your heart, this ain’t your home
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
Don’t need you near, don’t want your touch
Why are you here, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
What do you, what do you want?
