Ray Lamontagne - Old Before Your Time - Sözleri

When I was a younger man lookin' for my pot of gold

Everywhere I turned the doors were closinIt took every ounce of faith I had to keep on keepin' on

And still I felt like I was only losin

I refused then like I do now to let anybody tie me down

And I lost a few good friends along the way

I was raised up poor and I wanted more

And maybe I'm a little too proud

In lookin' back I see a kid who was just

Afraid, hungry and old before his time



Through the years I've known my share of broken hearted fools

And those who couldn't choose a path worth taking

There's nothin' in the world so sad as talking to a man

Who never knew his life was his for making



Ain't it about time you realize? It's not worth keepin' score

You win some, you lose some and you let it go








What's the use of stacking on every failure another stone

Till you find you've spent your whole damn life

Building walls, lonely and old before your time



It took so long to see

That truth was all around me



Now the wren has gone to roost and the sky is turnin' gold

And like the sky my soul is also turninTurnin' from the past, at last and all I've left behind

Could it be that I am finally learnin'?



Learnin' I'm deserving of love and the peaceful heart

I won't tear myself apart no more for tryinI'm tired of lyin' to myself, tryin' to buy what can't be bought

It's not livin' that you're doin' if it feels like dyin

Cryin, growin' old before your time

Cryin, growin' old before your time
