Lyrics
LYRICS : IN THE LIVING YEARS Every generation, blames the one before, and all of their frustration, comes beating on your door. I know I am a prisoner to all my father also did I know I am a hostage, to all his hopes and fears I just wish that I could have told him, in the living years Cho Say it loud, say it clear, you can listen as well as you hear. Its too late, when we die, to admit we don’t see eye to eye. Verse 2 I wasn’t there that morning when my father passed away Didn’t get to tell him, all the things I had to say, ooh I thought I caught his spirit, later that same year I thought I heard his echo, in my baby’s new born tears I wish that I could have told him, in the living years Cho Solo admit we don’t see eye to eye. Its too late, its too late when we die, to admit we don’t see eye to eye. Cho Say it loud, say it clear, to admit we don’t see eye to eye Its too late when we die, to admit we don’t see eye to eye Writers : B.A Robertson / Mike Rutherford Publishers : R & BA Music Ltd / Hit & Run Music Publishing Ltd Producer: Paul “Computer Paul” Henton All instruments played by: Computer Paul Sax: Dean Fraser Background Vocals: Heather Cummings and Rovleta Fraser Recording Engineer: Paul Henton Mixing Engineer: Lynford “Fatta” Marshall Recorded & mixed @ The Bootcamp, Kingston, Jamaica
