The Unit Lyrics by Two Down

The Two Lost Boys

0

As a man, here I stand
\nAnd I can safely say
\nThe loving of a strong woman
\nKept me from going astray
\nI was on the road to nowhere
\nHeading to an early grave
\nHad to best examples to follow
\nBut was close to throwing it all away
\nMum and dad's relationship, it truly blows me away
\nThey've been together for years
\nAnd their love has never decayed
\nI sometimes wonder if I can make it to that stage in my life
\nWhere I'm content
\nAnd doing everything I can for my wife
\nYou know the foundation's sеt
\nAnd the family's growing
\nSo every day thе bond's getting stronger without us knowing
\nBecause the love we share is unconditional
\nIf we argue it's out in the open, never subliminal
\nWow, we've made it this far
\nBut still, a long way to go, so no time to chill
\nI'm acting like I've got this thing covered
\nBut would be nowhere without the loving of my mother
\n
\nSo thank you for all you've done
\nYou raised me up and let me be someone
\nYou showed me strength
\nYou showed me love
\nYeah, this is unconditional
\n
\nPlease hold me
\nPlease hold me
\n
\nSometimes the loving of a mother is just not enough
\nA father figure's needed to show the kid how to toughen up
\nA reckless youth running wild
\nThat was me when I was growing up
\nFather had to discipline me so I could just wisen up
\nYou know, a tough nut to crack
\nI didn't want to listen, I thought I knew it all
\nAs I gazed through with short-sighted vision
\nSo we clashed
\nAs he prepared me for this last mission
\nHe used to tell me
\n"If the fire's too hot, get out the fucking kitchen"
\nAnd he would teach me, but still I tried to fight it though
\nIndependent mind, you know, trying to be self-reliant
\nThough when shit hits the fan, who's the first man I call?
\nAnd who's there to help me stand tall, whenever I should fall?
\nI mean wow, we've made it this far, but still
\nA long way to go, so no time to kill
\nI'm acting like I've got this thing covered
\nBut would be nowhere without the love we show each other
\n
\nSo thank you both, for all you've done
\nYou raised me up and let me be someone
\nYou showed me strength
\nYou showed me love
\nYeah, this is unconditional
\n
\nPlease hold me
\nPlease hold me
\n(Yeah)
\nPlease hold me
\n(Yeah)
\nPlease hold me\n\n
