Lyrics My Father's Son - Joe Cocker

My Father's Son

Heart over mind, yes I'm
My father's son
I live my life, just like
My father's done
If he'd told me, one day
That somebody'd have my heart in chains
Would I believe it, no way
Made up my mind I'd never fall that way
But tell me why
Every time I try to tell you it's goodbye
I can't seem to let go
In my heart I know I want to stay
What I'm trying to say
Heart over mind, yes I'm
My father's son
Yes I'm inclined to do
As my father's done
Here I am with you
And I know that it's true
Despite all the feelings
You're putting me through
I try to walk away,
something makes me stay
Heart over mind, yes I'm
My father's son
I live my life, just like
My father's done
But tell me why
Every time I try to tell you it's goodbye
I can't seem to let go
In my heart I know I want to stay,
What I'm trying to say...
Heart over mind, yes I'm
My father's son
I live my life, just like
My father's done
If he'd told me, one day
That somebody would have my heart in chains
Would I believe it, no way,
Made up my mind, I'd never fall that way
But it's heart over mind,
Yes I'm my father's son
And I will try to do
As my father's done
Heart over mind, yes I'm
My father's son
