lyrics

I’m an old man now and I can see where I’m headed
It’s a strange thing to know but I know it all the same
I’ve had a long life and no experience I’ve regretted
The only regret would be, having to leave her behind

I’ll never forget that warm feeling of making my sweetheart smile
That one simple expression could make a man hold on for dear life
There’s nothing I can say, and there’s nothing I can do
I know where I’m headed now and it’s not with you

My life has been full and my children are happy
My children’s children are gorgeous and they make me smile
And I worry about Lisa, but I know Gary’s there to pull her into line
And hope that one day Sam will find a love, a love like mine

I’ll never forget that warm feeling of making my sweetheart smile
That one simple expression could make a man hold on for dear life
There’s nothing I can say, and there’s nothing I can do
I know where I’m headed now and it’s not with you

Getting sleepy my sweetheart
Cry a tear for me love
Getting sleepy my sweetheart
Cry a tear for my love X3

I’ll never forget that warm feeling of making my sweetheart smile
That one simple expression could make a man hold on for dear life
There’s nothing I can say, and there’s nothing I can do
I know where I’m heading and it’s not with you
