Like My Father Lyrics - The 502s

I can't help but be like my father 

But I've never been in a place like this before 

To watch his eyes fill with water 

To years to the day since he last saw my mother 

And now that he lives here alone 

Is the love they had all but gone 

It's better to have it and leave it 

Then never to have it and need it at all 

Is life, my love, such a bitter thing? 

Well I can't comprehend what I'm seeing 

That this man that I hold over everything 

Even he's weak

So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see 

Anywhere you want to go and I'll go with you now 

I've seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees 

And I'm not inclined to just wait around 

When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be 

With the world at our feet 

But I just want to be me 

I can't help but be like my father 

But I've never been in a place like this before 

To have my eyes fill with water 

To years to the day since I last saw my love 

And now that I'm left here alone 

Is the love we shared all but gone 

If someone loves you and leaves you 

Well how do you know if their love lives on?
