I’m just an old man
my hair is thinning
my head is spinning
I cry myself to sleep at night
and lordy lordy
though no one hears me
I know you’re near me
you will always be my wife

and some days make me
feel weak and shaky
some fly right right by me
like a paper aeroplane
and I hardly notice
that the world’s gone crazy
but nothings clearer
than the way you said my name

but I should’ve let go by now
yeah I should’ve let go by now
but I kept your brownies
and your golden honey
and I smell your flowers
and I saved your money
and I hold your blanket
close for hours
and I painted my heart blue
but I did it all for you.
