Lyrics:

Nilsson

Years ago, I knew a boy
He was his daddy's biggest fan
We used to walk beside the sea
And he told me how life would be
When I grew up to be a man.

And how the mother did explain
Trying to take away the pain
But, he just couldn't understand
That his father was not a man
And it all was just a game.

The years have passed and so have I
Making it hard for me to cry
But if we wanna have a son
Let it all be said and done
Let the sadness pass him by ..
