Down the Stream

Sorry father I have been away I'm leaving tomorrow Going out of my shell I keep forgetting to tell you How much I care But I still remember Your words every day Now I got my back Against the wall, It's just a bad day And nothing more But I'm going, So so slowly! I am swimming down the stream The stream of my life What I'm seeing I know you've seen twice I'm swimming down the stream, The stream of my dreams, when all is good I start to drown I'm sorry dad I will call you tonight Even though there's not much to talk about right now I've not been able to show you yet What I've been doing for years Still preparing myself For the endurance, For the challenge For the dreams we both share And I wanna Return home With a bit more than just hope With a bit more than the debt I know you don't want me to repay And now I got my back against the wall But is just a bad day and nothing more But I'm still going on, just like you taught me I am swimming down the stream The stream of my life What I'm seeing I know you've seen twice I'm swimming down the stream, The stream of my dreams, when all is good I start to drown
