“… There are so many things I’m too old for –
I am a grown man, I acquired some scars
I probably won’t ever travel
To gorgeous amazing new stars
It’s too much, it’s too late, ‘complicated’
And the “highs” I don’t feel any more
I receive birthday wishes belated
But I dream just as big as before…
That while sailing adrift
I’ll acquire a gift
Stumble over a fortune right at my feet…
… Of a Different World
Of a love to behold
Of the open doors where someone’s waiting and loves and believes in me!
I can’t recall all the strangers
That I had befriended along
Countless sleepless nights wasted
At times when I felt so alone
Some folks seem to me straight up boring
To them l look tired it seems…
With so many words outpouring
I’d rather stay home and daydream…
That by staying adrift
I’ ll acquire a gift
Stumble over a fortune right at my feet
In a different world
With a love to behold
At the open doors where someone’s waiting and loves and believes in me!
If best times of my life I’d repeated
It still wouldn’t be quite all that…
Officially, I am ‘over ……50’ (30, 40, 60…)
But I am not giving up dreaming yet…
That by sailing adrift
I’ll acquire a gift
Stumble over a fortune right at my feet…
… Of a different world
Of a love to behold
Of the open doors where someone’s waiting and loves and believes in me!….”
