Graham Nash
Teach Your Children (Live 2006)
[Verse 1]
You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good-bye
Teach your children well
'Cause their father’s hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's is the one you'll know by
Don’t you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
[Verse 2]
And you of tender years (Can you hear and do you care)
You can't know the fears (And can you see)
That your elders grеw by (We must be free)
And so pleasе help (To teach your children)
Them with your youth (What you believe in)
'Cause they seek the truth (Make a world)
Before they can die (That we can live in)
Teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's is the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
