guess i'm feelin' older now
i done run outta things that i can do
that won't get me criticized
act your age unlike the way you do
i could be like all the rest
i could go
but i don't know the way
i'd be confessin' everything
but since i quit drinkin'
the words all run away
and i know it doesn't matter
to anyone or anything but me
that's all you're gonna get tonight
so you and i would best just let it be
once upon a time i knew
too little 'bout the world to give a damn
could be that was my mistake
made when i was lost in neverland
i could write a boring book
no one else
but me would ever read
i could tell it like it was
i start to thinkin'
it's not the way it seemed
and i know it doesn't matter
to anyone or anything but me
that's all your gonna get tonight
so you and i would best just let it be
sing a song of sad regret
sing it time and time again
and that's all you'll ever sing
turn it off and turn it on
day or night it's never gone
there just ain't no relief
and i know it doesn't matter
to anyone or anything but me
that's all your gonna get tonight
so you and i would best just let it be
