Song Lyrics
When I was young, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
And now I`m older see it face to face
And now I`m older gotta get up clean the place.
And I was green, greener than a hill
Where flowers grew and the sun shone still
Now I`m darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me a place to be.
And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I`d see when day is done
Now I`m weaker than the palest blue
Oh, so weak in this need for you.
