Can't Explain - Sunset Sons, Steve French, Rory Williams

Hey Mum

What happened to Dad

Why’d you have to be so sad?

I must admit

It’s been quite a bit of time since I was last mad

Don’t say you’re giving away

My favourite piano, please

It’s where I learned the melody from

An advert I saw on TV

So darling, isn’t it strange

All I can say is

We’ll never be young again

Don’t go running away

Darling, just stay

We’ll never be young again

We would be happy

Running around

Exploring all these possibilities

I could be Captain Kirk

Or conquering Earth

Peculiar games we’d play

How funny is it

When we all grow up

Dreaming of a simpler time

I can’t explain

The feeling I get

When everything seems to unwind

So darling, isn’t it strange

All I can say

We’ll never be young again

Don’t go running away

Darling, just stay

We’ll never be young again

I can’t explain what the future holds

And I can’t explain all the truth that’s told

I can’t explain it all

Can’t explain it

We’ll never be young again

No matter where we’re from and who we become

It’s only just a rocket we made

So grab your microscope, your moon boots and coat

For a galaxy far far away

Darling, isn’t it strange

All I can say

We’ll never be young again

Don’t go running away

Darling, just stay

We’ll never be young again

I can’t explain what the future holds

And I can’t explain all the truth that’s told

I can’t explain it all

Can’t explain it

We’ll never be young again
