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 TO 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 TO YOU
BUT ALL I CAN SEE
ALL I CAN SEE
I AM HERE FOR YOU
YOU ARE HERE FOR ME
IT'S AN ONGOING
PROCESS
I WILL TAKE CARE
OF YOU
YOU WILL TAKE CARE
OF ME
IF WE'RE 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 LEARN
AND FROM WHAT I SEE
AROUND ME
IT'S STILL A VERY
TOUGH WORLD
BUT ALL I CAN HOPE
IS THAT YOU'LL 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 TOO LATE
TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE
THE WAY IT SHOULD BE
SO EASY TO SEE
THAT I AM HERE FOR YOU
YOU ARE HERE FOR ME
IT'S AN ONGOING
PROCESS
I WILL TAKE CARE
OF YOU
YOU WILL TAKE CARE
OF ME
IF WE'RE GONNA
MAKE SOME PROGRESS
OH
YA GOTTA BELIEVE
NEVER BE AFRAID
TO DREAM
BUT FOLLOW IT THROUGH
'CAUSE IT WON'T
GET DONE
UNLESS IT COMES
FROM YOU
YA GOTTA
MAKE IT ALL WORK
FOR THE ONES
THAT ARE COMING
AFTER YOU
THOUGH HARD
IT MAY SEEM
YA GOTTA BELIEVE
I AM HERE FOR YOU
YOU ARE HERE FOR ME
IT'S AN ONGOING
PROCESS
I WILL TAKE CARE
OF YOU
YOU WILL TAKE CARE
OF ME
IF WE'RE GONNA
MAKE SOME PROGRESS
I AM HERE FOR YOU
IT'S AN ONGOING
PROCESS
I WILL TAKE CARE
OF YOU
IF WE'RE GONNA
MAKE SOME PROGRESS
