So sing with me softly
For these years when you forget
Never had a reason to live so long
And the Lords been like my shadow
And later Ill dream of paradise with you
And Ive always saved your poetry
Even when I was wrong
Never had a reason to live so long
No, I never thought it would turn out this way
Even when I was wrong
That you play your piano
I never thought Id get this old dear
No, I never thought it would turn out this way
For all the tears and regrets
As the day turns to night
A birthday with apologies
And the Lords been like my shadow
As the evening sun slowly sets
I never thought Id get this old dear
