Lyrics
Old Man Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California (v1) Just an old man facing another strange decade He’s tough but finds he’s a little afraid Doesn’t see or hear so good, most can tell And doesn’t take to new things all that well (v2) He doesn’t want to feel like he’s caught in between So he really likes things that become a routine He has a daughter that keeps digitally up to date But with nowhere to go; he doesn’t care if he’s late (chorus) Time keeps moving on No negotiations allowed What’s happening, is happening And it’s happening right now The days of his youth are long gone Coz time just keeps moving on (v3) As segments of his past flash across his mind He loses count of the love ones he’s left behind The world seems to spin faster with each new day He finds he’s falling behind, kinda losing his way (v4) He still laughs a lot and doesn’t mind living alone Knows he has an appointment he can’t postpone And the silence of the mind can sometimes explode Creating a flood of thoughts, it’s like a fresh reload (bridge) The old man keeps breathing and keeps on believing His days are not full of pity or sorrow And that appointment he has to keep He swears every day that it’s not until tomorrow (chorus)
