Family Tree |
| 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… |
