| I went for a walk the other day | |
| I saw a man who didn't seem to have a | |
| Reason to smile | |
| After looking at his face | |
| I knew that | |
| If I were him | |
| I couldn't turn my mouth up | |
| I thought | |
| I'd give him some time so | |
| I sat down | |
| Then he started to cry and said he is a | |
| Old man with a young mans heart | |
| You may be wondering how it gets this far | |
| Open an ear boy let me tell you how it goes | |
| It was a rainy night twelve years ago | |
| I had a nice wife, three kids and a good home | |
| I was waiting impatiently the phone rang | |
| The voice was calm and he said | |
| I'm sorry sir your family's gone | |
| They're at a train track, the engine stalled | |
| Nothing at all could be done to save them | |
| Sorry again about this call cause you're a | |
| Young man with an old mans heart | |
| You may be wondering how it gets this hard | |
| Don't you fear son this will pass before you know | |
| Can you imagine | |
| Everything you wanted | |
| Everything you hoped for | |
| Everything you needed | |
| Can you imagine | |
| It all just leaves you drowning | |
| In pools of self destruction | |
| I don't think you can | |
| It wont hurt if you don't want it to | |
| You can stand for your pride or | |
| Lay down a die | |
| Now son you've gotta keep in mind | |
| All the tears | |
| And the pain and the blame | |
| And everything in between | |
| And then you realize no one cares | |
| And I said | |
| Young man with an old mans heart | |
| You may be wondering how it gets this hard | |
| Don't you fear son this will pass before you know | |
| Can you imagine | |
| Everything you wanted | |
| Everything you hoped for | |
| Everything you needed | |
| Can you imagine | |
| It all just leaves you drowning | |
| In pools of self destruction | |
| I don't think you can | |
| I went for a walk the other day | |
| I saw a man who didn't seem to have a | |
| Reason to smile | |
| Have you ever heard of a hurricane | |
| It takes your life and your breath away | |
| Have you ever heard of a hurricane | |
| It takes your life away |
