This Old Man Lyrics



This old man

He worked for thirty years with

Two strong hands

In the factory light his

Lunch box held all his needs with

Coffee sandwiches and dreams

For me



This old man

He taught me many times

To understand

That showing love is simply

Noting you should have to hide

Don't keep your feelings locked inside

He said



When I was young

I dreamed a young man's dreams

I saw in your eyes

The things I'd never seen

But now I grow old

But I don't really mind

Cause can't you see

With my family

We'll share these timeless memories
