I love to watch the rainfall from our window That feeling that I’m safe and warm inside I love it when you kiss and hug your brother Makes me feel there’s something we did right When you were young, we’d shield you from the TV The cruelty and hatred on the news Now you’re chasing dreams in New York City Don’t lose that caring heart no matter what you do The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world I love this old black and white picture Your Grandpa looking dapper in a houndstooth cap I know he’s proud to be your Grandpa I’m proud that he’s my Dad He taught us all with fire and conviction I’ll always hear the passion in his voice “Son, it’s just a fact that there is right and wrong It’s up to you to make the choice” The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world You were 9 years old. We were stopped at a light I let that homeless man walk by You said “Dad, we should go back” But I drove into the night The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world The way of the world is not the only way We don’t have to take the way of the world
