Generations Lyrics

I'm gonna run away from you

'Cause I know you'll hate me

And you're not even in my view

I know it's ruthless

You'll say I'm "just carried away"

But looking forward

I won't find the time for you

And then I'll hate you

And you'll always hate me

These days I notice

That there's a man in me to set free

And he will try to

And there's nothing I can do

Because I'll hate you

I know and you're not in my view

Patiently, I'm sitting by the lake

The earth is cool beneath

And it's quiet on the ground

I look up at the night sky and the star I gave to you

And then I see you, all grown and past your youth

And I remember when I hoped

That one of these days

You wouldn't understand the words

That I sung to you

'Cause I was broken

Like the plastic toys we'll buy

You're in my head now

And I see you waving goodbye

And I can't hate you

No one blames you

Yet, I know it's true

Can't bear the truth

No one loved you, now you know it too

I've worked my last

I hope to see you again

If your heart has some room

I heard you started something new with a man

That you met last year

And you're so worried

But I've been there, my dear

And you're so worried

But I've been there

And I am by your side

Don't cry, don't cry

It's alright

But they can't spend their lives with you

'Cause then they'll hate you

And there's nothing you can do

They'll run away girl

Sometimes it's all that you can do

When you love somebody

And you need to face the truth

But don't forget that

That I am by your side

Don't cry, don't cry

It's alright

I am here

All the time

I am here

All the time
