My father sat beside me
And Luke was on the screen waging a battle
With his father in the stars
And as their tale grew darker
Terror caught me by the throat
My father looked upon me
And took me by the hand and said
"It's alright son
Let's get up and go"
I was just a young man
Life was but a picture show
I was just a young man
There was much I didn't know
I didn't know
And I was still a young man
In the harsh and blinding lights
And it ain't like the movies
The narrative keeps coming
There's no second take
To try and get it right
I was just a young man
Life was but a picture show
I was just a young man
There was much I didn't know
My childhood seemed so long ago
And all together far, far away
And my story has not yet been told
Until the ending I will remain
Found a queen to lay beside me...to lay beside me
First a daughter than a son
A son
And every hero needs a father
The Force is strong
With this one
He is just a young man
Life was but a picture show
He is just a young man
There is much he doesn't know
