Yearlings ( 1978 )
Your boy comes runnin' in an' tells you,
Mum & Dad I gotta go
to watch the sunrise on the mountains
& race the rivers down below
and you take your stand against him,
'cos it hurts to watch him fly
but you understand the reasons,
that's your reflection in your boy's eye
And your little girl's expression
she's got somethin' on her mind
Often she asked you a favour,
but this one's really outa line
You almost laugh 'cos she's a baby,
you're holdin' fast to yesterday
but recognise the changing seasons,
you're all that's standin' in her way
'Cos they're gonna do it anyway,
so stand aside and watch them grow
They've got to light a few stars of their own,
you've been there so you should know
Yeah, they're gonna do it anyway
ride on every wave they see
holdin' on to all you taught them,
they sail on easy like you and me
easy and free, easy and free
