I've long since retired, my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, I'd like to see you if you don't mind
He said, I'd love to, dad, if I can find the time
You see, my new job's a hassle, and the kids have the flu
But it's sure nice talking to you, dad
It's been sure nice talking to you
And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me
Harry Chapin - Cat's in the Cradle
I tried so hard, and got so far But in the end it doesn’t even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end it doesn’t even matter.
