lyrics

When I look back on my 60 years
It all seems like a blur
It all seems like it was here and now it's gone
And when I think about all the stuff I've done
And the stuff I've yet to do
I can't believe that my time ain't that long

Like to think about what I might do
If I could go back
If I could go back to way back when
Oh I am so much older now, baby
I was much younger than that then

I am remember when the birds were singing
In four-part harmony
And it came through to me loud and clear
Well it came down like a joyful rain
And it drowned away my sorrows
I felt unconstrained and without fear

I'm just playing the hand that I'm dealt
From these crummy old cards
They ain't coming up the ace of spades
Oh I am so much older now, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah

The end of days now seem palpable
Like it's almost just up ahead
And just up ahead is where I'm bound
My bags are packed and I'm ready to go
I got some weed stuck in my sack
Hope some day I see you around
