Lyrics " For David "

Original text with translation

For David

Consolidated

Came of age back in '69

Did some crazy things back in changing times

Making choices and if you choose to use

Sometimes the ones you love the most you could lose

First time you put your hands on her she said

I love you so but now it’s over you can’t forget

Patterns repeated

So deep seeded you don’t know why

How to change a life that is a lie

Things you did were not forgotten

Lives you’ve lived were not forgiven

You made decisions

And now the consequences you have to pay

This is a train wreck going one way

Unless you want to change

I’ll never do it again

Change

Every time people look at me I know

I’m a batterer I’m an addict

So many lessons so much you have to learn

So much water under the bridge you burned

There’s no way to turn back time now

What’s done is done

All you do is change yourself

When you love someone

The good things you do are not forgotten

The good life you made and all is forgiven

Choice and consequence

You’re marriage that you saved

You made this happen you accounted

You know that you can change

I’ll always be there for you

Change

Everyone knows that I adore you

I’m a husband I’m a father

It was such a nice night

When I went to bed everything was all right

All of a sudden it was like I was your nightmare

That I couldn’t awake from

Chief Joseph wrote that life is like a tree

When a strong wind blows the tree must sway

Or be torn from it’s roots

This was from jacob’s scrapbook

At the funeral tears come over the crowd in waves

You were so heroic the testimony that you gave

You need support you need something to do

If you keep going back

It’s going to be consuming you

You know his life won’t be forgotten

He’d want you to be celebrating living

You feel his spirit well it’s with you every day

He needs your love you need his love

When you’re going through this

Change I don’t know if I can live through his

Can’t bring back your loving kiss

Live with all the things I miss

I don’t know if I can live through this
