Old And Wise lyrics by Alan Parsons Project

As far as my eyes can seeThere are shadows approaching meAnd to those I left behindI wanted you to knowYou've always shared my deepest thoughtsYou follow where I goAnd oh when I'm old and wiseBitter words mean little to meAutumn winds will blow right through meAnd someday in the mist of timeWhen they asked me if I knew youI'd smile and say you were a friend of mineAnd the sadness would be lifted from my eyesOh when I'm old and wiseAs far as my eyes can seeThere are shadows surrounding meAnd to those I leave behindI want you all to knowYou've always shared my darkest hoursI'll miss you when I goAnd oh, when I'm old and wiseHeavy words that tossed and blew meLike autumn winds will blow right through meAnd someday in the mist of timeWhen they ask you if you knew meRemember that you were a friend of mineAs the final curtain falls before my eyesOh when I'm old and wiseAs far as my eyes can see
