When I’m Old Lyrics by Jason Dea West

Journey in Today

2017

[Verse 1]
Well, you claim you're a friend a' mine
But you never ever seem to have the time
There's always someplace else you're s'posed to be
Always somebody else you're going to see
Somebody never is me
[Verse 2]
So often you pretend we're no more than friends
Well, I been lookin' for a way and means to an end
You act surprised when I look in your eyes
And say "Considеr tonight the end"
[Verse 3]
Then you say that I, I'vе lost my mind
Perhaps, baby, you drink too much wine
I'm always drinking and thinking of you all the time
For I know true love's hard to find
[Verse 4]
But with you, it is true, I can see red inside
So swallow your pride, abandon your lies
There is no point in claiming your heart is mine
If true love you cannot define
[Verse 5]
And you cry and you smile
For once stay a while
For you know now there is nowhere you can hide
[Verse 6]
Again I can hear the road call my name
Or maybe I am just going insane
And I know I've only got myself to blame
For walkin' the world all alone
[Verse 7]
Well, I've walked as a stray now for almost a year
'Cause I been livin' day by day, I been living in fear
I'm starting to wish you was still here
I love you and now that is clear
[Verse 8]
But the last time we spoke was that drunken night
I didn't wanna leave, I just hate when we fight
Well, I know that I love you now that I'm gone
My heart still belongs to the Lord
[Verse 9]
Well, I hear now you've had yourself a child
If it's anything like you, it is free and it's wild
But I'm sure by now, you've probably settled down
I am still going with the flow
[Verse 10]
Well, I hear you've finally found yourself a home
You and your baby boy, living alone
Well, I hope that you're happy, now that you've grown
I'll see you again when I'm old
