Testo Forgotten Years - Midnight Oil
Testo della canzone Forgotten Years (Midnight Oil), tratta dall'album Mighty Rock: Australia's Greatest Groups
Few of the sins of the father
Are visited upon the son
Hearts have been hard
Hands have been clenched into fists too long
Our sons need never be soldiers
Our daughters will never need guns
These are the years between
These are the years that were hard fought and won
Now, contracts torn at the edges
Old signatures stained with tears
Seasons of war and grease
These should not be forgotten years
Still, it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
How many dreams remain?
This is a feeling too strong to contain
The hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
We will remember (these should not be forgotten years)
Our shoreline was never invaded
Our country was never in flames
This is the calm we breathe
This is the feeling too strong to contain
Still, it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
Signatures stained with tears
Who can remember?
We've got to remember
The hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
We will remember (these should not be forgotten years)
I said it's the hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
We will remember (these should not be forgotten years)
Forsaking, aching, breaking years
The time and tested heartbreak years
Who needs someone to sing to you now?
Aw, the blinded years, the binded years
The desperate and divided years
These should not be forgotten years (these should not be forgotten years)
Remember
Oh, we'll try
