SELVA OSCURA

Cat Stevens

Father

It’s not time to make a change,

Just sit down, take it slowly.

You’re still young, that’s your fault,

There’s so much you have to go through.

Find a girl, settle down,

If you want you can marry.

Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy.

(son-- away away away, I know I have to

Make this decision alone - no)

Son

All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,

It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it.

If they were right, I’d agree, but it’s them you know not me.

Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away.

I know I have to go.
