Lyrics
I couldn't take it anymore, son
It was tearing me apart
We're lost, we're finished man, we're through
I need to give the kid a future
I need to look him in the eye
Believe me son I'd do the same for you
You can't give in now, Dad
We've all been out a year
I can never talk to you again
You can't do this to me Dad
You can't do it to yourself
He's just a kid, he's only just a bairn
But he could be a star for all we know
We don't know how far he can go
And no one else can give what I can give
No one else can give what I can give
He could go and he could shine
Not just stay here counting time
Son, we've got the chance to let him live
Yes, we've got the chance to let him live
This isn't about us, Dad
It's not about a kid
It's all of us, it's everybody's chance
It's everybody's future
It's everybody's past
It's not about a bairn who wants to dance
It's about our history
It's about our rights
Think about the sacrifice we've made
It's what you've always taught us (I know, son)
Since I was a lad (I know, son)
Then please, Dad, don't let that passion fade
He could be a star for all we know
We don't know how far he can go
And no one else can give what I can give
No one else can give what I can give
We're all in this together Jack
There is another way
All for one, and one for all
Take this and this
And this and this
And this and this
And this and this
Don't worry, lad, we'll never let you fall
'Cause he could be a star for all we know
We don't know how far he can go
But we'll give all that we can give
We'll all give all that we can give
(We will go and we will shine)
(We will go and seize the time)
(We will all have pride in how we live)
(We will all have pride in how we live) We will always stand together
Through the dark, right through the storm
We will stand shoulder to shoulder
To keep us warm
Writer(s): Elton John, Lee Hall
