The Living Years Lyrics by The Last Breakfast Club

The Last Breakfast Club

2018

CLAIRE
Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
CLAIRE, with ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
CLAIRE
I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
I know I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
Say it loud
CLAIRE
Say it loud
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
Say it clear
CLAIRE
Oh say it clear
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
You can listen as well
CLAIRE, with ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
As you hear
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
It's too late
CLAIRE
It's too late
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
When we die
CLAIRE
It's too late when we die
ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
To admit
CLAIRE, with ALLISON, ANDREW, BENDER, BRIAN, JANITOR
We don't see eye to eye
CLAIRE
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
