Son Lyrics


Listen up and take a minute I need to tell you why
I do the things the way I do and weeks are flying by
I'm trying to fill a void in my life these days
By filling it with work and work
And accomplishments and praise
Anything that keeps me busy anything that keeps me up
Cause if I start to let it out I think I'm never gonna stop
Afraid I'm never gonna stop
Listen up and take a minute wherever you are
I've been mourning you with the bottle and with my guitar
For this song I sat myself down to put in words
What's underneath and what's unsaid
How much this whole thing hurts
How much this whole thing hurts
Listen up just take a minute I need to tell you why
I do the things the way I do so months are flying by
Since you're gone it isn't always easy all I do is run

But the hardest part the hardest part
Was growing up your son
Was growing up your son

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Silvestre Revueltas (December 21, 1899 - October 5, 1940) was a Mexican composer of classical music, violinist and conductor. His rhythmic and sometimes dissonant style draws from Mexican folk music, considered by some to be a 'Mexican Béla Bartók'. He was born in Santiago Papasquiaro in Durango, and studied at the National Conservatory in Mexico City, St Edward College in Austin, Texas and the Chicago College of Music. He gave violin recitals and in 1929 was invited by Carlos Chávez to become assistant conductor of the Mexico Symphony Orchestra, a post he held until 1935.
