Remember how we used to sing to "The Best of Cat Stevens" CD together? Here's the song that always made me think of you:

FATHER AND SON

Father It’s not time to make a change, Just relax, take it easy. You’re still young, that’s your fault, There’s so much you have to know. Find a girl, settle down, If you want you can marry. Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it’s not easy, To be calm when you’ve found something going on. But take your time, think a lot, Why, think of everything you’ve got. For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again. It’s always been the same, same old story. From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen. Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go.

Father It’s not time to make a change, Just sit down, take it slowly. You’re still young, that’s your fault, There’s so much you have to go through. Find a girl, settle down, If you want you can marry. Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy. (son-- away away away, I know I have to Make this decision alone - no) Son All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside, It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it. If they were right, I’d agree, but it’s them you know not me. Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go. (father-- stay stay stay, why must you go and Make this decision alone? )
