Bottled Up Inside

English translation

Every time I think about you

I swear it almost brings me to tears

And every possibility that never unfolded

Makes me want to turn back the years

'Cause all the things that I never said

Like your father did to you way back when

I waited for all these years, just bottled up inside

I wanted to say the all the things that he never vocalised

I love you, I love you, yes, I do

I love you, I love you, yes, I do

And I know you wanted to teach me all the things you knew

Like how to use the tools in the way you always wanted me to

But I had to go my own way and do my own things

I had to play this goddamn guitar and let my body sing

And I know you said you're proud of the things I've done

That means a lot to me, your only son

'Cause I love you, Dad, and I hope you know that

And I hope you won't forget it

'Cause I know that you didn't get what you needed from your old man

Before you're gone, I'll say it again

Can we release the feelings we've always had?

I love you, I love you, yes, I do
