From the recording The Dealer
Lyrics
Son of Mine
Son of mine, you were born in a rage
But soon grew calm in your mother’s arms
Son of mine, I watched you grow to a man
Then go to war in a rage-filled land
And I can never know all the reasons why
The heart is torn but son of mine this that we do
Has been done before and will be so forevermore
Son of mine, when I am gone
You’ll cast your shadow where I once stood
Son of mine, take your child’s hand
Look to the trees and know that life is mostly good
No, we can never know all the reasons why
The heart is torn, but son of mine this that we do
Has been done before and will be so forevermore
Son of mine…
