- Terence Trent D’Arby - I’ll Never Turn My Back On You (father’s Words) Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- This isn't living now
- A thing my father said to me
- And get a haircut, boy
- If you want a chance in respectable society
- Why did you stop writing?
- I knew you had some trouble, son
- But you should know by now
- That my number doesn't change
- Because a dirty deed is done.
- All I need from you
- And that's all
- Regardless of whatever you do
- And that is what you understand
- That I'll never turn my back on you.
- How are your wife and child?
- I'm sure your little girl has grown
- And give them a kiss and smile
- That's what my daddy said
- In a letter very long
- What kind of man would I be?
- If I left you in despair (and then he wrote)
- And I miss your mother, son
- Cause if she were still alive
- She'd tell you too
- You should cut your hair.
- All I need from you
- And that's all
- Regardless of whatever you do
- And that is what you realise
- That I'll never turn my back on you.
- Whatever you do just try to get through to me
- Remember the time we got drunk on wine by the sea
- And I laughed when you tried to stagger home by yourself
- You were stubborn then and you are still stubborn now.
- All I need from you
- And that's all
- Regardless of whatever you do
- And that is what you understand
- That I'll never turn my back on you.
