I changed the lyrics a bit so you can actually sing this about a mother, if that suits you better: You're not my mom, I'm not your daughter We're just two grown women saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So mommy won't you just close your eyes Don't be afraid It's my turn To chase the monsters away 🤍
I wish there was no delay on the lyrics so I could prime them in my head to keep time while learning the song. That's my only critique. Thank you for making this video and great work.
Oh, before they turn off all the lights I won't read you your wrongs or your rights The time has gone I'll tell you goodnight, close the door Tell you I love you once more The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud So daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Oh, well I'll read a story to you Only difference is this one is true The time has gone I folded your clothes on the chair I hope you sleep well, don't be scared The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud So daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Sleep a lifetime Yes, and breathe a last word You can feel my hand on your own I will be the last one, so I'll leave a light on Let there be no darkness in your heart But I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud So daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away
Thanks for the video. It would be great if you had the words on the screen a tad bit little bit earlier. They show up a little late so it's hard to sing along if you don't know it. But good job...
That's always a problem on those home made karaoke versions. You need to put the lyrics BEFORE they are sung, not sync them. Especially since they are not even in sync, there.
Oh, antes de que apaguen todas las luces, no te leeré una lista con lo que has hecho bien o mal, el tiempo se ha acabado. Te daré las buenas noches, cerraré la puerta, te diré que te quiero una vez más. El tiempo se ha acabado, así que, ahí va. Yo no soy tu hijo, tú no eres mi padre. Solo somos dos hombres adultos despidiéndose, no hace falta perdonar, no hace falta olvidar. Conozco tus errores y tú conoces los míos, y mientras tú estás durmiendo, intentaré hacer que te sientas orgulloso de mí. Así que, papá, ¿vas a cerrar los ojos? No tengas miedo, ahora me toca a mí ahuyentar a los monstruos. Oh, bueno, te leeré una historia, la única diferencia es que esta es real. El tiempo se ha acabado, doblé tu ropa sobre la silla, espero que duermas bien, no tengas miedo. El tiempo se ha acabado, así que, ahí va. Yo no soy tu hijo, tú no eres mi padre. Solo somos dos hombres adultos despidiéndose, no hace falta perdonar, no hace falta olvidar. Conozco tus errores y tú conoces los míos, y mientras tú estás durmiendo, intentaré hacer que te sientas orgulloso de mí. Así que, papá, ¿vas a cerrar los ojos? No tengas miedo, ahora me toca a mí ahuyentar a los monstruos. Duerme toda una vida, sí, y respira una última palabra. Puedes sentir mi mano sobre la tuya, yo seré el último (en irme), así que dejaré una luz encendida. No dejaré que haya oscuridad en tu corazón. Yo no soy tu hijo, tú no eres mi padre. Solo somos dos hombres adultos despidiéndose, no hace falta perdonar, no hace falta olvidar. Conozco tus errores y tú conoces los míos, y mientras tú estás durmiendo, intentaré hacer que te sientas orgulloso de mí. Así que, papá, ¿vas a cerrar los ojos?

@@rossco7214it’s not, some people do better with the lyrics written out, rather than working with the screen, especially when learning timing (say for live performances).
@@rossco7214 I appreciate what you’re saying, however, whilst this video is very well done, there is little preparation for the next line. If you don’t know the song well, or off by heart, it can be disconcerting to try learning with that style of video. I do appreciate obviously that there are other videos available, but I also believe that this comment can be helpful for people who may need to use this particular sound (for a live performance or even for exams). When I was taking my singing exams however many years ago I was given one backing track to use and could not change to another, and so comments like this were helpful for preparation. I apologise for the long response, I want to share a different perspective on why people may find this useful :)

Sleep a lifetime
Yes, and breathe a last word
You can feel my hand on your own
I will be the last one, so I'll leave a light on
Let there be no darkness in your heart
But I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud

@@chenille28 Yes, I agree 💯
Thank you!
Can you do a lower version please
Please do a lower version 😫😫
I did a write over on this for my dad he's still alive is that wrong cause I love this song❤
no, coz life is so short but death is so sure, it's the thing we all endure..
Lovely. Re the lyrics, it is "hand on your arm," not "hand on your own."
Thx

@@libbybendall2117 theres no logic to that, the lyrics are literally in time when on the video, that is exactly why this comment is redundant
