Never Too Far to Fall
Ned Doheny Lyrics

From the seed to the tree that you wanted me to be - I'll suddenly be up and running
I will grow from the small seed to a big tree, just the way you wanted me to be, and soon I will be ready to take on the world.

To another country but this - distance doesn't make a difference since you've helped -me -get -this far
Even though I moved to another country, distance does not matter because you have helped me get this far in life.

Yes, I was scared But not unprepared Best days of my life Spent never knowing where (I reside)
Although I was scared, I was not unprepared. The best days of my life were spent not knowing where I reside.

And though we lost our home we're still holding so close at the end of the rope and you sent me notes how you left me so I could go to school and never fall depths below - you were telling me no when you heard that I would go to work and now I want to show my debt to owe when I help you write all the books you like with a house on the brook and the farm to survive then I find you'll reminisce as we try to say this: Looks like we made it
Despite losing our home, we are still holding on together. You sent me notes and told me not to fall in the depths below, and you were telling me not to go to work. Now that I am helping you write all the books you like, I am showing my debt of gratitude to you. We will reminisce and say that it looks like we made it when we have our own house on the brook and a farm to survive.

I know I am my father's son And when I get to raise one I'll know just what to do
I know I am your son, and when I get to raise one, I will know just what to do because of the lessons you taught me.

Would it matter if we didn't even make it? - It's the journey we've taken long as you can say you're not disappointed I can keep going And absorb Every conversation That we have
Would it matter if we didn't even make it? As long as we can say we are not disappointed with the journey we have taken, I can keep going and absorb every conversation that we have.

- I was drowning but you came and saved me And thank you for paying for all the vacations Instead of pinching pennies, I'm Remembering you telling me To never ever let it be The money over memories
I was drowning, but you came and saved me, and I thank you for paying for all the vacations. Instead of pinching pennies, I am remembering you telling me to never let money be more important than memories.

Testing your troubles far away Think up a rhythm just a bit too late This solitary way you stay Makes trees grow faster Than you
Running away from your troubles won't solve anything. Sometimes it's important to think things through before making a decision. Being alone for too long can make you feel like time is moving faster than you can keep up with.

- I would never be living a dream if the words that I wrote made you cringe and sheepish the nights are sleepless so I guarantee this You'll never fall far with my achievements You bought me, my sister, and my mom an education I'm not an engineer but I'm not ungracious - I just hope that you'll reminisce when we say this: Looks like we made it
If my writing made you cringe, I would never be living my dream. I guarantee you that you'll never fall far with my achievements. You bought me, my sister, and my mom an education and I am grateful. Although I am not an engineer, I am not ungrateful. I just hope that you will reminisce and say that it looks like we made it.
