Lyrics
Half A Century
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.
Where, where do we go from here
I've been searching for a place where the sky is clear
Take, take me to that place
If ever you find it come and get me don't hesistate
'Cause I've been running around
I'm up or I'm down
But I've swallowed it down and I'm getting better
But wait, wait a minute more
If, you don't see me coming I'll be running past the chapel door
So, give, give what I never took
You can write it in the pages of your story book
And tell them the king's lost his crown
And the queen's lost his crown
I guess I'm better now but it doesn't matter
'Cause I've been counting out the years we've spent here making history
I'm leaving my trouble and I'm burning in the sun
All for another half a century
If it hadn't been for you I would probably never see
The way you fill your own cup without sympathy even though
'Cause I've been counting out the years we've spent here making history
I'm leaving my trouble and I'm burning in the sun
All for another half a century
'Cause I've been counting out the years we've spent here making history
I'm leaving my trouble and I'm burning in the sun
All for another half a century
