Older Chests |
Older chests reveal themselves |
Like a crack in a wall |
Starting small, and grow in time |
And we (always) seem to need the help |
Of someone else |
To mend that shelf |
(of) Too many books |
Read me your favourite line |
Papa went to other lands |
And he found someone who understands |
The ticking, and the western man’s need to cry |
He came back the other day, yeah you know |
Some things in life may change |
And some things |
They stay the same |
Like time, there’s always time |
On my mind |
So pass me by, I’ll be fine |
Just give me time |
Older gents sit on the fence |
With their cap in hand |
Looking grand |
They watch their city change |
Children scream, or so it seems, |
Louder than before |
Out of doors, into stores with bigger names |
Mama tried to wash their faces |
But these kids they lost their graces |
And daddy lost at the races too many times |
She broke down the other day, yeah you know |
Some things in life may change |
But some things they stay the same |
Like time, time, there’s always time |
On my mind |
So pass me by, I’ll be fine |
Just give me time, |
Time, there’s always time |
On my mind |
Pass me by, I’ll be fine |
Just give me time |
