unknown warriors - great expectations lyrics
it’s never easy, being the best one
fighting preconceptions from day one
everybody’s got their own answer
everyone can show you how it’s done
and when to run
you’ll find your own way
in the jungle of today
on a path that seems to always twist and turn
what dreams will you have?
what mountains will you climb?
who’s gonna capture your heart
that one last time?
i’ll pick up the bits when you fall
i’ll hold your hand, i’ll help you stand tall
when the time comes and you’re on your own
you need to know that you’re never alone
but life is short
and years rush past
that little boy grows up so fast
no longer always by my side
with precious secrets to confide
the picture books are put away;
screens are now the games to play
the questions they come harder now
and anger darkens that youthful brow
seems like i closed my eyes for a second
and a man stands where once was just a boy
i don’t carry him on my back, anymore
and i miss every little thing we had before
don’t lose me now in the troubled years
lean on me to ease your fears
’cause what i’ve done and what i’ve seen
and everything i’ve ever been
has all been made for you alone
to cherish you in a loving home
you give me so many reasons
to be proud of the man that you’ve become
but the greatest moment always for me
is telling others that you’re my son
great expectations there may have been
and time, that ever rolling stream, bears every son away
but you won’t fly forgotten, as a dream
your star’s too bright, it burns too clean
and brightens every day
great expectations there may have been
and time, that ever rolling stream, bears every son away
but you won’t fly forgotten, as a dream
your star’s too bright, it burns too clean
and brightens every day
whatever you’ll be, whoever you’ll know
whenever you’ll leave, wherever you go
whatever you do, you’ll do your best
that’s all i want, so forget the rest
whatever you’ll be, whoever you’ll know
whenever you’ll leave, wherever you go
whatever you do, you’ll do your best
that’s all i want, so forget the rest
whatever you’ll be, whoever you’ll know
whenever you’ll leave, wherever you go
whatever you do, you’ll do your best
that’s all i want, so forget the rest
