Andy Durey - Old Man Lyrics

For many years
You were sitting there
With your radio on that old bench
Straw hat on and toothpick in
Marked by a long life of work
Felt like you were
Slowly drifting away
Like leaves on trees are fading
When winter is about to stay
So spend some time
Have an open ear
Listen to what they say
Cause one day one day my dear
All this might change
And it changed
And grandma called for gathered dinner time
Spoon and fork by an empty chair
Guess old habbits never change
Even though you're not there
So spend some time
Have an open ear
Listen to what they say
Cause one day one day my dear
All this might change
And it changed
And I
Just couldn't see him
Fading
Away
So don't make the same mistake
Go spend some time
Have an open ear
Hear their stories from different times
And one day one day my dear
No need to steer clear
Of the last goodbye
