Old Souls

I wanna go to a place in time where love is sweet, wine is fine Troubles of my mind are far away Do you remember such a place? Lovers two, in harmony, slipping past the mystery There is no secret code or key But it's harder than it seems Of all the beauty in humanity From Beethoven to Debussy No song could ever sing to me So soft and sweet I've been told I'm an old soul As if I understand all I've seen All I know, time is only passing In a land of the blind Where one-eyed men are kings So here's to you looking back at me When all my days of youth are spent paying dues and making rent I hear there is an open door Steady on and stay the course I do not seek your sympathy but a line or two of honesty I'll sort the rest out on my own Some roads you must go down alone I've been told I'm an old soul As if I understand all I've seen All I know, time is only passing In a land of the blind Where one-eyed men are kings So here's to you looking back at me
