The Last Son - Doves

Born on a train nowhere

I was born in a car out there

You were bound to live this life

You were bound to be alive

When I was a young man

I looked up to the ones by my side

I was bound by a love and despair

I was bound by a love and despair

The last son

You gotta a nerve to come back here again

But I guess that’s how it goes

You always hurt the ones you know

The last Son

Tell me how you know

When your love won’t die but grows

I am that son

Born to a northern star

With the fallow stretching far

I never knew there’s another way

I never knew I’d leave this way

Now I’m an older man

Trying to accept the person I’am

I was born to live this way

I was bound to live this way

But I want to see you again

But I guess that’s how it goes

You always hurt the love you know

The last son

Tell me how did you know

When your love won’t die but grows

The last son

I am that son

Well I wonder how you know

Why your love won’t die but grows

But I guess that’s how it goes

You gotta learn to let them

Let those people go

Learn to let them go

The last son
