Bloodline Lyrics

Bloodline Lyrics

You're getting older now
I see the lines around your smile
I see what's coming 'round the corner
And that's a lot for an only child
Cause I don't know yet
If I want kids of my own
But I know that if I don't
It ends with me

If I had a sister or a brother
We could share the burden with each other

Cause one day you'll be gone
Then I'll be gone too
Don't know if I'll carry it on
Oh but someday if I do
Then our family name
It won't just be mine
And I'll see your face
When I'm looking in their eyes
But that's only
If I carry on your bloodline

I'm only 23
I've got my whole life left to live
I know I shouldn't think like this
But I can't help it
You were 43
When you had me
You took your time
But that took mine
And soon you'll leave
Then it's just me
Left on the family tree

One day you'll be gone
Then I'll be gone too
Don't know if I'll carry it on
Oh but someday if I do
Then our family name
It won't just be mine
And I'll see your face
When I'm looking in their eyes
But that's only
If I carry on your bloodline

Oooo
Ahhh
Ahhh

One day you'll be gone
And then I'll be gone too
If I don't carry it on
They'll be nothing left of you
And it's a heavy weight
That I feel all the time
Not having a way
To remember you by
If I don't carry on your bloodline
