]Father and son
It's not time to make a change
Just relax take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy
I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot
C AT STEVENS: was the son of Swedish mother and Greek father who ran a restaurant in London.

Stevens formally became a Muslim and adopted the name YUSUF ISLAM.
Well think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not
How can I try to explain
When I do he turns away again
It's always been the same
Some old story,
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way and I know
That I have to go away
I know I have to go
It's not time to make a change
Just sit down and take it slowly
You're still young that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy
All the times that I've cried
Keeping all the things I know inside
It's hard' but it's harder
To ignore it
If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know, not me
Now there's a way and I know
That I have to go away
I know I have to go
