Poor old granddad I laughed at all his words |
|
I thought he was a bitter man |
|
He spoke of womens ways |
|
They'll trap you, then they use you before you even know |
|
For love is blind and you're far too kind |
|
Don't ever let it show |
|
I wish that I knew what I know now |
|
When I was younger. |
|
I wish that I knew what I know now |
|
When I was stronger. |
|
The can-can such a pretty show |
|
Will steal your heart away |
|
But backstage back on earth again |
|
The dressing rooms are grey |
|
They come on strong and it aint too long |
|
For they make you feel a man |
|
But love is blind and you soon will find |
|
Youre just a boy again |
|
When you want her lips, you get her cheek |
|
Makes you wonder where you are |
|
If you want some more then she's fast asleep |
|
Youre just twinkling with the stars. |
|
Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say |
|
Youll have to learn, just like me |
|
And that's the hardest way, ooh la la |
|
Ooh la la, la la, yeah |
|
I wish that I knew what I know now |
|
When I was younger. |
|
I wish that I knew what I know now |
|
When I was stronger. |
