I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say



I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years

- "The Living Years" (Mike and the Mechanics)


My son was born six months after my father died. We'd never communicated very well, so these lyrics jumped right out at me when the song hit the radio 3 years later.


edit: Also, the whole song "Tears in Heaven" tilts the hell out of me, as my son was born about the same time Clapton's was and looked very similar.
