歌曲 | Old Man Time Ain't No Friend of Mine |
歌手 | Jason Webley |
专辑 | Viaje |
作曲 : Webley | |
Wake up in a room where steel guitars turn to steel bars | |
You know I've lived here too long | |
Try to write these songs about being bored | |
Why am I so surprised when they all prove boring songs? | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don't know just how long I've been here | |
I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years | |
Plucking strings by the side of my bed | |
By a stack of books, most of which I've never read | |
I want to capture in sound the way things are | |
But I'd regret it in the morning if I smashed my guitar | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don't know just how long I've been here | |
I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years | |
Well, they're never gonna tell us | |
Just what's coming around the bend | |
But there's one thing I can count on | |
That's that old man time is not my fucking friend | |
For the reaper lurks in stillness | |
But motion too is death | |
So I just float between them | |
Moving in and out to the rhythm of my breath | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don't know just how long I've been here | |
I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don't know just how long I've been here | |
So I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years |

You know I' ve lived here too long | |
Try to write these songs about being bored | |
Why am I so surprised when they all prove boring songs? | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don' t know just how long I' ve been here | |
I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years | |
Plucking strings by the side of my bed | |
By a stack of books, most of which I' ve never read | |
I want to capture in sound the way things are | |
But I' d regret it in the morning if I smashed my guitar | |
The second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by | |
I don' t know just how long I' ve been here | |
I stare out the window and contemplate the sky | |
While I grow older than my years | |
Well, they' re never gonna tell us | |
Just what' s coming around the bend | |
