Old Song

(アルバム： Ear Snacks - 2023)

I had the notion to put life in motion
Make it breath, make it read like an old gospel devotion
But when I close my eyes, surprised to find
That what I carry with me is inescapably

Just like an old song that brings you back home
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
Like an old song that we've all heard before
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more

I remember the day
I lost your voice but could see your face
Saying "What's up kid" with half a smile
And a spirit that could stretch half a mile
And I mourned you all over again, but I remember when
I waited for you patiently so we could sing

That old song that brings you back home
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
Like an old song that we've all heard before
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more

We've been married for 60 years
That's 22 thousand days of fear and laughter
Peace and worry, fighting and making up
And after all that's changed
I still feel the same
As that day in 1954
When I said I'd always be yours

Like an old song that brings you back home
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
Like an old song that we've all heard before
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more

Let me sing it to you like an old song that brings you back home
Like a sweet old melody, you take it with you when you go
Like an old song that we've all heard before
Gives us peace of mind, takes us back in time before we needed more
