The Elderman歌词完整版
Being old's something sneaks up on you fast
You don't seem to notice the years going past
A glance in the mirror can raise a wry smile
At the old face staring back I haven't seen in a while
Am I dying or dancing, I can't quite decide ?
I all my mates who've already died
You could hit the road, the road that goes nowhere
That our fathers took that ends in a hook out by the North Sea
You could follow me and see what I've seen, marry a queen in a palace of pain
And you fall suddenly at the end of her reign
You could follow me and set yourself free, break up with the queen
And then split the scene to find suddenly that life's just a spree
To all the young learning to live
Like a wealthy man with nothing to give
And its wasted and its wasted so enjoy it while you can
Because your youth will disappear and then you'll understand
The Elder man
You could follow me a light that has shone, who's looks are long gone
With the heat of desire and the flame of the fire
You could follow me and walk through the smoke with the spirits invoked
In the land of the king where the sweet sparrows sing
It's a wonderful thing
To all the young learning to live
Like a wealthy man with nothing to give
And its wasted and its wasted so enjoy it while you can
Because your youth will disappear and then you'll understand
The Elder man
