letra de please sir (2008) - martyn joseph

[verse 1]
she was always a very pretty lady
and he had always caught her eye
and they were married in a mining valley
and they said let’s stay together there until the day that we die

[verse 2]
and twenty years later with the coal gone
there’s a golden lamp in his hand
he’s standing in the bar with his pint and his mates
and they all agree together they don’t understand

[pre-chorus]
and meanwhile little david takes his books off to school
and learn about the times gone past
when it comes to question time, up goes his little hand
there’s something that he just wants to ask

[chorus]
please sir, can you give me an answer?
please sir, you know it does not seem fair
last night as i walked through the door
i thought i saw my daddy crying, sat in his chair

[verse 3]
she stood there with her arms around him and she said
she promised him a better day
but after twenty years of working underground
it’s not just your job that they rip away
[pre-chorus]
sometimes he’d wander to the edge of his world
and stare at the valley below
thought about leaving there, maybe just running away
but knew there was nowhere to go

[chorus]
please sir, can you give me an answer?
please sir, you know i just can’t see
please sir, when you make the decisions
did you have a vision of what happens to me?
please sir, can you give me an answer?
please sir, you know i just can’t see
please sir, when you make a decision
do you have a vision of what happens to me? (hey)

[verse 4]
life goes on in the mining valleys
and the young men have left for a better wage
and every day he will cough, he’ll splutter
but he’ll look in her eyes, somewhere deep in her eyes
so he knows that love is the reason to stay

[pre-chorus]
meanwhile little david takes his books off to school
learn about the times gone past
when it came to question time, up goes the little hand
there’s something that he just wants to ask
[chorus]
please sir, can you give me an answer?
please sir, you know it does not seem fair
last night i walked through the door
i thought i saw my daddy crying, sat in his chair
please sir, can you give me an answer?
please sir, you know i just can’t see
please sir, when you make a decision
do you have a vision of what happens to me?
do you know what happens to the likes of me?
well, please take a look, take a look now
take a look and see
