He Said |
| When I was just a young boy |
| I loved to play with my toys |
| And sit around and watch tv |
| Sometimes we’d go to the beach |
| I loved to go to the beach |
| Until an old man came to me |
| I said hey mister, why do you look so blue |
| He said it’s nothing you just |
| Look like someone I once new |
| I said oh really as I looked into his eyes |
| Right then and there I knew this man would tell no lies |
| He said |
| I am a man of glory, I’ve got a million stories |
| If you would just listen to me |
| I’ve sailed across this ocean, given so much devotion |
| But just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see |
| We’d find a park with flowers |
| We’d sit and talk for hours |
| He taught me ancient history |
| He said |
| I used to be a great man |
| I traveled across this great land |
| Until an old man came to me |
| And said |
| I am a man of glory, I’ve got a million stories |
| If you would just listen to me |
| I’ve been around the world |
| Been with all kinds of girls |
| But just one thing has stayed with me, come here and see |
| But now I am much older |
| My life has grown much colder |
| I only care about one thing |
| How can I make more money |
| Life’s empty without money |
| And then a voice spoke out to me |
| And said |
| I am a man of glory, I’ve got a million stories |
| If you would just listen to me |
| I used to be a rich man |
| Money can ruin a good man |
| Just look what it has done to me |
| No I’m, I’m not the same as I used to be… |
