Testo This Old Man Debra Davis
He has no skin to cover his bones
He lives in the corner house all alone
Sits in the window and watches the crazy world go by
There you will find me by his sideâ¦
He says everybodyâs spinnin too fast
Takinâ your timeâs a thing of the past
The only one that really lasts is love youâd better give me some of that
This old man is wiser
This old man is true
Opened up my eyes there watching the world go by from a window seat
We make each otherâs lives complete
He comes alive when the school bell rings
Says âI remember walkin on wingsâ¦
We counted every step and never touched the ground
Now I realize we all get lost just to be found
This old man is wiser
This old man is true
Opened up my eyes there watching the world go by from a window seat
We make each otherâs lives complete
Paint is peeling and the carpet is worn
But over and over now the memories are reborn
Through the window nothingâs real to his eye
He says âRemember once my story is told
Iâll realize that I am old.
With a smile Iâll turn the page
I take my bow, you take the stageâ¦â
This old man is wiser
This old man is true
Opened up my eyes there watching the world go by from a window seat
We make each otherâs lives complete
