What tender days we had no secrets hid away
Lazy bones ain't got no time to waste away
Call me lazy bones, ain't got no time to waste away
Just gazin' at some dragon in the sky
Now it seems about a hundred years ago
Please excuse me while I hide away
Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles
Well, it seemed about a hundred years ago
Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?
You're gonna kiss and say goodbye, yeah, I warn you
Don't you think, don't you think it's just about time to hide away?
Now if you see me drinkin' bad red wine
Went out walkin' through the wood the other day
Yeah, yeah
Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?
Kiss your baby
Kiss your baby
You're gonna kiss and say goodbye, oh Lord, I warn you
Can't you see the furrows in my forehead?
Mary and I, we would sit upon a gate
Don't worry 'bout this man that you love
The buds were bursting and the air smelled sweet and strange
What tender days we had no secrets hid away
Living out a dream of what they was
Seemed about a hundred years ago
You're gonna kiss and say goodbye, yeah, I warn you
