Lyrics
History?s Repeating Itself
When he died it had been almost 14 years
Since they had talked on the phone
Father and son, strangers to each other
A void they left to fill on their own
I see the similarities too clear to be denied
In the way that you and I get along
Just like you I find it hard to talk about
Just like me I put it in a song
I can see it happening just like before
I hope you see it too
Chorus:
It feels like history?s repeating itself
Can?t let that happen to us
It feels like history?s repeating itself
It feels like history?s repeating itself
Somewhere along the way
We just stopped talking to each other
I didn?t wanna push, you didn?t wanna pry
The gap grew larger as the years went on and on
Both of us have always wondered why
I can see it happening just like before
I hope you see it too
Chorus
We can?t turn back time and make it right
Although I wish we could
The best that we can do is bridge the gap between us
Move on from here the way we should
Chorus
