Down the Stream

Sorry father
 I have been away
 I'm leaving tomorrow
 Going out of my shell
 I keep forgetting to tell you
 How much I care
 But I still remember
 Your words every day
 Now I got my back
 Against the wall,
 It's just a bad day
 And nothing more
 But I'm going,
 So so slowly!
 I am swimming down the stream
 The stream of my life
 What I'm seeing I know you've seen twice
 I'm swimming down the stream,
 the stream of my dreams, when all is good I start to drown
 I'm sorry dad
 I will call you tonight
 Even though there's not much to talk about right now
 I've not been able to show you yet
 What I've been doing for years
 Still preparing myself
 For the endurance,
 For the challenge
 For the dreams we both share
 And I wanna
 Return home
 With a bit more than just hope
 With a bit more than the debt
 I know you don't want me to repay
 And now I got my back against the wall
 But is just a bad day and nothing more
 But I'm still going on, just like you taught me
 I am swimming down the stream
 The stream of my life
 What I'm seeing I know you've seen twice
 I'm swimming down the stream,
 the stream of my dreams, when all is good I start to drown
