As I grow older I can see br Some things with greater clarity br As I grow greyer day by day br There’s some things that won’t go away br The aches and pains where once were none br The reading glasses I put on br But there’s one point I’d like to make br Not for my own but others’ sake br And that this ageing’s no surprise br We’re born for one thing – that’s to die br So as I feel my time run out br There’s something in me wants to shout br For what a life! For all I’ve seen! br I thank you Lord for having been.
