|
Take me down next to the water |
|
Next to flowers and old times |
|
I hope the view is still the same |
|
'Cause I've been losing strength and power |
|
Regret occupies my mind |
|
I'm sick of loneliness and pain |
|
I used to be, young and free |
|
Worried about my legacy |
|
Now I'm aged and alone |
|
I'm getting old, and growing up |
|
Is not what it's cracked up to be |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
When you're young you think you're perfect |
|
Indestructible and strong |
|
Well let me tell you that you're wrong |
|
'Cause I have watched lives come and go |
|
My God, I've seen my children die |
|
Respect and glory are just talk |
|
I used to be, young and free |
|
Worried about my legacy |
|
Now I'm aged and alone |
|
I'm getting old, and growing up |
|
Is not what it's cracked up to be |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
We're just names in stone |
|
Hold on to your youth |
|
'Cause soon you'll be old, too |
|
Hold on to your youth |
|
'Cause soon you will die, too |
