Hey Son
Journey Through Time: Hey Son's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
Hey son we're moving so fast
Expressing the fast pace of life and movement.
No one ever told us our part
Reflecting on the lack of guidance or advice received.
We hold on our radios
Depicting reliance on radios as a source of information.
To know of our years as we age
Contemplating the passage of time and aging through radio broadcasts.
Hey son you gotta take a breath
Encouraging a pause to reflect and relax in the midst of life's speed.
It's hard to keep tracking the past
Acknowledging the difficulty of remembering and coping with the past.
You hold on and grow old
Emphasizing the importance of holding on and aging gracefully.
With a heart that stays as it is
Highlighting the endurance of a consistent and unchanged heart.
But the sun rises all the same
Noting the regularity of the sunrise despite life's challenges.
As we look at the falling waves
Observing the beauty and transience of moments represented by falling waves.
Oh boy we're never ashamed
Expressing pride in one's choices without regret or shame.
To never grow older again
Embracing the idea of staying youthful and avoiding the aging process.
Hey son don't lose your edge
Advising the son not to lose the qualities that maintain mental stability.
The one that is keeping you sane
Stressing the importance of holding onto a sense of sanity and balance.
You hold on as though you know
Encouraging persistence while acknowledging the gradual fading of certainty.
But it surely is fading away
Recognizing the inevitable decline or loss of certain aspects.
Hey son it's all just a game
Describing life as a game, with challenges and uncertainties.
A battle of what remains
Portraying existence as a battle, focusing on what remains significant.
You hold on to those unknown
Encouraging holding onto the unknown aspects of life.
As time passes by all of us
Reflecting on the passing of time for everyone.
But the sun rises all the same
Reiterating the constancy of the sunrise amidst life's challenges.
As we look at the falling waves
Echoing the beauty and impermanence of moments like falling waves.
Oh boy we're never ashamed
Expressing pride in choices and a refusal to be ashamed of aging.
To never grow older again
Affirming the desire to stay young at heart and resist growing older.
Hey son we're turning around
Indicating a change in direction and the need to disregard distracting noises.
Just ignore all these sounds
Suggesting a deliberate decision to turn away from external disturbances.
