Lately my son I´ve been confused Don´t know what to tell you ´cause it´s all such bad news Lately my son I´ve been discouraged I look around and it fills me with worry
What kind of world can I offer you Where will it all lead, do we have the sense to make it through? I´ve tried to figure it out, to have an answer I can tell you But all I can see, all I can see
Is I am here for you, and you are here for me It´s an ongoing process I will take care of you and you will take care of me If were gonna make some progress
Lately my son I feel ashamed For many things that have happened and are happening again Really my son I thought we´d learned
From what I see around me it´s a very tough world But all I can hope is that you take it as a challenge To create something new that will take you far, I know that you can manage To scatter some hope, ´cause it´s not to late to repair the damage The only way it can be, is so easy to see
Is I am here for you, and you are here for me It´s an ongoing process I will take care of you and you will take care of me If were gonna make some progress
You gotta believe, never be afraid to dream But follow it through, ´cause it won´t get done unless it comes from you
Gotta make it all work, for the ones that are coming after you Though hard it may seem, gotta believe
Is I am here for you, and you are here for me It´s an ongoing process I will take care of you and you will take care of me If were gonna make some progress
