Family Tree Lyrics - Gerry Rafferty

When we were young we used to sing 

And we could feel the harmony 

You'd sit there waiting in the wings 

How long have you been waitin' to let your light shine? 

Many years have gone since then 

Seen us go our different ways 

But now we sit here once again 

Tonight we're gonna sing out, tonight our light will shine. 

This is the time and place 

To bring out our memories 

It's written on every face 

I can see it in you, you can see it in me. 

In all the years we had 

As part of a family tree 

We knew the good and bad 

I can see it in you, you can see it in me.

I know it's left its mark on you 

I see the same things in myself 

You know there's nothin' we can't do 

We've been a long time waitin', but some things never die. 

It's time to leave all that behind 

It's time to lay that ghost to rest 

We can't deny the ties that bind 

Tonight we're gonna sing out, tonight our light will shine. 

This is the time and place 

To bring out our memories 

It's written on every face 

I can see it in you, you can see it in me. 

In all the years we had (when we were young we used to sing) 

As part of a family tree (we could feel the harmony) 

We knew the good and bad 

I can see it in you, you can see it in me. 

When we were young we used to sing...
