Older Chests 歌詞

Older chests reveal themselves

Like a crack in a wall

Starting small and grow in time

And we always seem to need the help Of someone else

To mend that shelf

Too many books

Read me your favourite line

Papa went to other lands

And he found someone who understands

The ticking and the western man's need to cry

He came back the other day you know

Some things in life may change

And some things

They stay the same

Like time there's always time

On my mind

 

So pass me by I'll be fine

Just give me time

Older gents sit on the fence

With their cap in hand

Looking grand

They watch their city change

Children scream or so it seems

Out of doors and into stores with bigger names

Mama tried to wash their faces

But these kids they lost their graces

And daddy lost at the races too many times

She broke down the other day yeah you know

Some things in life may change

But some things

They stay the same

 

Like time there's always time

On my mind

So pass me by I'll be fine

Just give me time

Time there's always time

On my mind

 

Pass me by I'll be fine

 

Just give me time
