lirik lagu roger whittaker - what i left behind
[verse 1]
my father’s son, i followed father’s plan
until i reached the age of twenty~three
then, all alone, suitcase in my hand
i heard the closing door, and i recalled my father’s words to me
[chorus]
“you’re leaving home today, my son
you’ll find the world is greedy, mad, and blind
just don’t forget where you came from
and what you left behind
[post~chorus]
“just don’t forget where you came from
and what you left behind”
[verse 2]
mary~ann, my girl, my love, my heart, my world
a bond we made that only death could part
those golden years brought struggle, fight, and love
until you said goodbye, leaving me for someone rich and smart
[chorus]
oh, father, i remember when
you said the world was greedy, mad, and blind
i won’t forget where i came from
and what i left behind
[post~chorus]
i won’t forget where i came from
and what i left behind
[verse 3]
as time goes by, so everything must change
i’ve worked hard and, for that, i’ve had my pay
old father time has taken mom and dad
i think about the past, if only they were here so i could say
[chorus]
“oh, father, i remember when
you said the world was greedy, mad, and blind
i won’t forget where i came from
and what i left behind
oh, father, i remember when
you said the world was greedy, mad, and blind
i won’t forget where i came from
and what i left behind
[post~chorus]
“i won’t forget where i came from
and what i left behind”
