LYRICS
Father:
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
Why, think of everything you’ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not
Son:
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again?
It’s always been the same, same 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
Father:
It’s not time to make a change
Just sit down, 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
Son:
Away, away, away, I know
I have to make this decision alone - no
Son:
All the times that I’ve cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it
If they were right I’d agree, but it’s them you know not me
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go
Away, I know, I have to go
Father:
Stay, stay, stay, why must you go and
Make this decision alone? No

I can't write or speak English properly, but I know that passionate people like me can understand me and feel me through these little big sentences." I am a very sensitive and passionate person until I have tears in my eyes.. And when I listen to this song I think of my father, a great man who died of cancer when I was very young. Then I grew up and I think of him, when he said, my son, I am really sick buying myself a piece of cake. Life without him and his compassion is cruel. I feel very alone. . I live with great sadness in my heart to be praised by my relatives and friends.

I can't begin to explain the effect this song has had on me over the years, but especially today. Sadness always but a lot more. Can't put it into words.

My grandma gave me good advice. My dad was tough on us. She said ‘Yes, because we had famine, plagues, wars, and epidemics. She said, You have 2 kids and he had 7! Just know that we loved each other, she yelled!My grandmother told me to explain to my other sibs that for the first 20 years our dad was the only bread winner. And later in life, he did get kinder and more caring…so, give him time and don’t be too quick to judge the past. ‘We are the mirrors of ourselves’ We have to be the change or ‘the tough love’ we grew up with will carry over to the next generations.

My dad played me this song when I was going through a very tough time in my life. I was so mad at him because he didnt rescue me or save me, instead he taught me how to overcome adversity and become stronger through the toughest of times. Over a decade later I am so thankful. I lost my amazing father in April, I cry everyday because I miss that man so much. He is the dad I want to be, and the husband I strive to be. Rest well dad, I miss you and love you

I'm sitting here crying like a baby. My oldest boy James passed away in 2011 two weeks before his 34th birthday and was going through some hard times and I was too far away to be there with him. This song has always been one of my favorites. God bless you James. Shoe box & tears I came across an old shoe box, on top a layer of dust Knowing memories will be awakened, I blew off the dust and removed the lid. Yes it has been some time when I saw all of you last. On a little pieces of paper, laughter frozen in time Yes, I remember that day, that moment in time I shared with you. Silently overturning photo after photo I smile at each one. I’m powerless and I slowly close my eyes as tear drops of time roll down my cheeks. I reach the last picture and slowly put the top back on the box but wouldn’t you know before I tuck it away I find one more shoebox behind it but we’ll save that for another day. J.W Brucks 5/5/17 I wrote this some years ago. If you have an "Old shoe box" bring it down, share the tears of laughter and sadness.

I can't listen to this song without tearing up. My father was my best friend and taught me so much about life and people. He was a quiet gentle man and never yelled. He would explain why you don't do certain things and their consequences unlike most parents who scream and teach you nothing. I lost him almost 11 years ago. He died in my arms peacefully and quietly like the life he lived with us. He came from a communist country and witnessed more than most people could imagine so his wisdom and understanding of human nature came early in life. Thank you papa. Love you forever ❤

My brother passed last year and we had this for his funeral. It made me warm as i think of those lectures. The power of Cats music to take us on new journeys..

Lost my Dad March 2nd 2020. I was 57 and I was happy I had him that long. Times were hard between us when I was young, we were close later in life. He was 86 and cancer took him. I was there to take care of him for the final two months of his life. I was shaving him when he passed, he hated not being clean shaven. Now my mom is is living with me and cancer is about to take her. This song hits me in my gut. Love your family, one day they will be gone.

I understand your feelings. My father and I were so very close when I was young and then...years and years of anger. A lovely woman came into my life and made me see that if I ever wanted to have a relationship with my dad then I would have to be the one to end the hostility. I did. We had 15 good years before he died in 2019 when I was 53. Now I'm sitting here, playing his guitar, crying and hoping that he knew how much I respected and cherished him, even when my foolishness kept us apart. If he had died during the 20-years when we were estranged I would be devastated now. Family is more precious than anything.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing that. I was 47 when my father passed 4 years ago. We hadn't spoken in almost 15 years. Our stubborn pride kept us apart - neither of us believed we needed to say "I'm sorry." The day he died, my sister urged me to come visit, saying it would help bring him peace. I said I'd come in the morning. He didn't make it and I didn't get to say goodbye. Y'all - be sure to cherish what you have, swallow your pride, be the first to say "I'm sorry." Like the song says, "It's too late when we die, to admit we don't see eye to eye...I just wish I could have told him in the living years."

Blows me away that Cat Stevens could write such a deeply reflective song as a young man at all of 22 years old. It's like he had the life's wisdom of an 80 year old man and father of multiple grown children, but he was 60 years younger. Pretty incredible.

@@carolinemulders135 I’ve seen what your saying and it’s certainly all over the industry, but there are types of people who are more socially involved with older people. If you combine that with a college education in writing at a time when who you were studying would have been much older people I can see it. Bob Dylan was known world wide before he ever released a song for what he did for folk music. Paul Simon s early music and his career were modeled after Bach. I’m sure that graduating from Juilliard played a part in that.

Well said, yes he did have this wise old soul perspective in his songs. I remember that sense when I first heard him in the 70's. I was in high school listening to lots of different artists and he was singular in the way he made me feel. I enjoyed the sounds but at the same time I knew that he was about more than just entertaining the listener.. Felt like he was always leaning towards more. All these years later that still holds true.

He sang us many folk and country rock lullabies. We still have this vinyl album in the cabinet, as well as many others like Bread, Simon & Garfunkel, Crosby Stills & Nash, etc. I'm here in his memory. He died 2 weeks ago on 6 August 2022 after a 4-year battle with colon cancer. I miss him dearly, and still in disbelief really, yet I know his soul is free now. I look forward to seeing him again in eternity🙏🏿❤️🕊️

I first heard this line when I was 16 and I felt it spoke to me. Now I'm in my fifties and the line still speaks to me: My son is now sixteen, my daughter 22. Both have accused me at times of not listening to them! I AM trying, but it seems to them that I am not succeeding. So sad!

What is a killer line?? I'm not English so I can't understand this expression, could you explain me its meaning?

I cant believe i met him , brunswick Australia, i said youseff hello , he was with his wife, he said salam , then said join us for a coffee in a cafe . So i did and had the best half hour of my life , what an honor, what a good man , who else would have ever asked an unknown like me to join him .

wow. “But that’s okay, it’s ok.” That just filled me with such a strange feeling. I’m only 19 and I was raised on cat stevens by parents born in the 60’s. This has always been my favorite song but reading all of these comments from people much older than me, it really wakes up a new perspective. When I’m 60+ years old I’ll be listening to this song as well and it will have an entirely new meaning. Music is beautiful and timeless and I’m so thankful I get to share it with all of you

My grandpa used to play this song for me when he was teaching my guitar. He raised me a good chunk of my life and I was the one who found him passed away in his old house that 3 generations of my family grew up in raised by him. He adored this song and I can’t think of anyone but him when I hear cats voice. God bless

this became a song for me and my dad when he passed away. And after his cremation I get home on a taxi holding his urn and that song immediately played in the car. There are a million songs that could have been played, but it played the song we used to sing together.

When I was a young man in a complicated relationship with my father the phrase “from the moment i could talk, i was ordered to listen” brought tears to my eyes. I went away like in the song and now i have become old myself it’s the phrase “you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not” that makes me cry.
