1. Old Man Songtext
von Vera van Heeringen
1. Old Man Songtext
A handsome devil he once was
But somehow he didn′t find
A woman to grow old with
Someone to treat him kind
The dream of raising children
He'd given up a long time ago
When the band plays ′round the corner
Once a month he will be there
And he thinks about his father
And the worries he can't share
And now he knows that one day soon
He'll be gone for good
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering ′bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He's gotta be alone
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
He's got a sparkle in his eyes
And when you talk to him you′ll find
That he's so full of passion
His body older than his mind
And I just wonder why a man like him
Ended up alone
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering 'bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He's gotta be alone
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering 'bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He′s gotta be alone
They don't like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
They don't like to see an old man cry
Or hear him moan
But somehow he didn′t find
A woman to grow old with
Someone to treat him kind
The dream of raising children
He'd given up a long time ago
When the band plays ′round the corner
Once a month he will be there
And he thinks about his father
And the worries he can't share
And now he knows that one day soon
He'll be gone for good
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering ′bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He's gotta be alone
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
He's got a sparkle in his eyes
And when you talk to him you′ll find
That he's so full of passion
His body older than his mind
And I just wonder why a man like him
Ended up alone
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering 'bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He's gotta be alone
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
He′d listen to the music
Standing at the side
Wondering 'bout the feelings that he hides
To let the tears come pouring down
He′s gotta be alone
They don't like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
They don′t like to see an old man cry
Hear an old man moan
They don't like to see an old man cry
Or hear him moan
