Flowers in the ground they wilt way Sun in the sky it fades away Make the funniest shapes from the cloud so grey The breeze in the trees they blow my way I was told my soul was old Then can’t I understand it all If my soul was really old I wonder if i could change this world Life has given my obstacles Still I bite my tongue say it’s wonderful I’m just glad I’m still around I’m even more glad when things are down But you, you came to break me Oh you, you came to save me Life’s too short for what if’s and plans So let the day take you by the hand Get your filofax we’ll go and burn them But I’m too old for ‘damn the man’ I make a wish on a star at night The brightest star that’s in the sky Only to have realized That it was just a satellite But you, you came to calm me Oh you, you came to cool me
