about

For my dad's 70th birthday, we recorded a duet of one of his favorite songs, "Father and Son" by Yusuf / Cat Steven. It came out the summer dad turned 19.

100% of proceeds will go to AIS, the American Institute of Stuttering, a leading non-profit organization that provides universally affordable and specialized speech therapy for people who stutter and their families.

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 someone, 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 found something going on

But take your time
Think a lot
Why, think, everything you've got for you
Will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

Son:
How can I try to explain?
'Cause 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, 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 someone, settle down,
If you want, you can marry
Look at me
I am old but I'm happy

Son:
All the times that I 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 they know not me
Now there's a way
And I know, that I have to go away

I know I have to go
