Make Or Break (aka Andy’s Song)

Like father, like son
Like a war just begun ---
Two sides to live for, you got to live for yourself
I always believed that time would bring this battle to you and me

Just another man
Just a simple man
Living as his father, he’s found a second partner
So he can play the family man

But here’s a different view
Like one a son would choose
Here’s a man with a second chance to keep
All the things he was set to loose

Taken me some time to choose which path should prove that, hey! we’re not alone
Talking with the family now, just a change to frown and knock him down
But things were different, tongues weren’t sharp
You’re my old man, but before we start….

Hey! Don’t tell those stories now
‘Cause I’ve heard them all before
Hey! We’re growing older now
It’s time to make or break this bond

Maybe I’m wrong
Maybe this pen’s not some mighty sword
I get things wrong
And it’s time, yeah, it’s time to sing a different song

Taken me some time to choose which path should prove that, hey! we’re not alone
Talking with the family now, just a change to frown and knock him down
But things were different, tongues weren’t sharp
You’re my old man, but before we start….

Hey! Don’t tell those stories now
‘Cause I’ve heard them all before
Hey! We’re growing older now
It’s time to make or break this bond

I really like the time when you just talk to me
If conversation’s dry, you don’t need to impress me
Just tell me of the times when I’d just fall asleep --- well that’s just me
These memories will never fade out, but listen now

Hey! Don’t tell those stories now
‘Cause I’ve heard them all before
Hey! We’re growing older now
It’s time to make or break this bond

I really like the time when you just talk to me
If conversation’s dry, you don’t need to impress me
Now my pen’s run dry so I guess I’ll sleep.
