The Soul of My Father's Shadow-Chris Rea

Oh I moved to the sound Of my father's shadow Always pulling on these chains Trying to break free Over the wall Into the darkest night Not knowing What was just ahead for me He used to say You got to know the way You got to do some schooling every day Son, I'm so scared, scared of what I see Oh you got to cool down or you'll end up like me Chasing the soul Of my father's shadow Oh I hear what they're saying What they whisper I know A chip off the block With a raging fire down below And no guessing, no guessing It's so easy to see Always punching at them walls Always trying to break free But I hear mama say Only trouble goona come my way Moving to the sound Of my father's shadow Mama say God help my child Mama say I feel he's running wild She say why why why Oh cry cry cry So well I know So well I know That raging fire below Chasing the soul, chasing the soul, chasing the soul Of my father's shadow Chasing the soul, chasing the soul, chasing the soul Of my father's shadow Oh of my father's shadow
