Lyrics
First we should call a truce
Initiating a truce, suggesting a pause in conflict or disagreement
This time
Emphasizing the importance of the current moment
Forgetting all we left behind
Encouraging forgetting past issues and moving forward
Stow everything we know
Store away all knowledge and baggage
Along
Moving forward along a path
Through your father’s eyes
Viewing the situation through the perspective of one's father
Your mother’s smile
Considering the situation with the warmth and care of one's mother
Send these memories down the line
Urging to pass down memories to the next generation
For future generations
Preserving memories for the benefit of future generations
Send these memories down the line
Reiterating the importance of passing down memories
And let them know we tried
Expressing the intention to convey effort and attempts made
Lessons locked inside for them to find
Highlighting valuable lessons within memories for the future
Send these memories down the line
Repeating the importance of sending memories forward
They gave all they tried to save
Referring to sacrifices made in an attempt to save
From themselves
Highlighting internal conflicts and struggles
With remedies from history
Mentioning attempted solutions from the past
Pride, all the things they tried
Listing various efforts and endeavors
That never worked
Acknowledging unsuccessful attempts
Experiences hold the key
Believing that experiences hold the solution
Send these memories down the line
Reiterating the importance of passing down memories
Our trials and tribulations
Referring to challenges and difficulties faced
Send these memories down the line
Stressing the need to share the experiences of trials
And let them know we tried
Expressing the intention to convey effort and attempts made
Lessons locked inside for them to find
Highlighting valuable lessons within memories for the future
Send these memories down the line
Repeating the importance of sending memories forward
Send these memories down the line
Emphasizing once again the significance of passing down memories
For future generations
Preserving memories for the benefit of future generations
Send these memories down the line
Reiterating the importance of passing down memories
Lessons locked inside
Stressing the lessons locked inside memories
Give them a fighting chance
Encouraging future generations with the knowledge of efforts made
To know that we tried
Affirming the importance of conveying the attempt
Send these memories down the line
Repeating the call to send memories down the line
