a tear in an old man's eye   a glass raised for the new   comes a time when all the years you've spent   are better to forget   place me above your light   if that's something you can do   every night I almost start to pray that   you don't go away   I don't want to lose you   don't want to have to choose to   settle into a single life   something that I won't do   it's gonna take me a year   to break these chains   and swallow our remains   at least I'll get old in time   and lose everything I knew   I could start to let my mind replay   those scenes of yesterday   time slips away and reminds us everyday   now you're feeling older   you live with all the ghosts   that keep you up the most   how can you sleep tonight?   can't let the heart tell lies   the love will never stay   and please believe me when I say   love walks out on broken legs
