Lyrics
My Old Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look in the mirror
Who do you see?
Someone familiar
But surely not me
For he can't be me
Look how old and cold and tired and lonely he's become
Not until you see
There's a price tag hanging off of having that fun
Uh-oh, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
Oh no, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
Walk on the outside, holding her hand
Someone familiar, her and her man
But it just can't be
Look at all the steps that brought you where you are today
Not until you see
As the heart grows stronger, sometimes love gets pushed away
Uh-oh, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
Oh no, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
Uh-oh, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
Oh no, looks like I'm seeing more of my old man in me
