Roles Reversed

The lights are dim, just a little bit,
And you’re sat in that old chair where you used to sit,
We have all the time that the lord can give,
But the lord’s time is running out,
Your hands are strong and your eyes are sure,
But I can see in your smile that the memories are blurred,
You gave me the song time after time,
And I’ll do the same til it’s done.
And no one cares if it takes us a million years,
You talked, I learn and now the roles are reversed again.
While the city sleeps, you lie awake,
And search for the changes that you used to make,
Your hands still move like a hero,
But can a hero just lose all his power,
So ask me father I’ll show you how,
Cause I have the patience if you’re feeling down,
We have all the time that we dare to live,
Don’t dare say it’s running out.
And no one cares if it takes us a million years,
You talked, I learn and now the roles are reversed again.
And no one cares if it takes us a million years,
You talked, I learn and now the roles are reversed again,
You talked, I learn and now the roles are reversed again.
