Old Man Song

Oh we are fighters in our prime And as I look to your corner from mine They say the chasm is black and so terribly wide But I believe that's a trick of the eye And there are mountains in your eyes I suppose it should be no surprise The war that you wage against smiling at your age Is the only thing you said unwise When you look like you do When you look like you do When you look like you do Oh come alive inside this light Your journey on is my delight I sense a feeling so strange as I'm watching you change From a man into a portal knight So play old man Won't you play? I'll sit by your side, if I may And soak in your soul While denying it so Contesting your claim You're nearly through I don't believe you When you can do what you do I don't believe you Oh why don't you just play? --- Old Man Song - KT Tunstall
