16 Years Songtext
von The Griswolds

16 years, without even a place to call my home
But I′ll dry my tears, looking for a place to rest my bones
All these years, but never changed the one that I have known
And despite my fears, I'm sure that I can make it on my own

Party drugs and limousines, oh mama this is killing me
I′m half the man I used to be, oh-oh
Tequila, lust and gambling, oh mama I need rescuing
What 16 years has done to me, oh-oh (ooh)

16 years, burning every bridge that I have known
Without you here, the world has gotten colder on my own

Party drugs and limousines, oh mama this is killing me
I'm half the man I used to be, oh-oh
Tequila, lust and gambling, oh mama I need rescuing
What 16 years has done to me, oh-oh (ooh)


There's nothing like it, I′m going away
There′s nothing like the feeling
Of being alone now on a New York street
Gives everything some meaning
There's nothing like being torn apart
From a love you′ve known right from the start
There's nothing like this feeling

There′s nothing like it, I'm going away
There′s nothing like the feeling
Of being alone now on a New York street
Gives everything some meaning
There's nothing like being torn apart
From a love you've known right from the start
There′s nothing like this feeling

Party drugs and limousines, oh mama this is killing me
I′m half the man I used to be, oh-oh
Tequila, lust and gambling, oh mama I need rescuing
What 16 years has done to me, oh-oh (ooh)

It's what 16 years has done to me, oh-oh (ooh)
It′s what 16 years has done to me, oh-oh (ooh)
