[Verse 1] I work this room on Tuesday nights It isn't much, but it pays all right From nine p.m. until last call Sometimes I'm playin' to the walls But then there's nights I come alive The stage, it completes my thin disguise I just keep runnin' from myself Playin' the song and be somebody else
[Chorus] Because I'm old at heart And the people listenin' to me in the bars They see the youth that's in my eyes But if they saw the man inside They'd know my soul was gray and worn Cut from a cloth that's stained and torn Unraveled from the single thread With too many words I left unsaid And I know I don't look the part This young man, he's old at heart
[Instrumental bridge]
[Verse 2] Words that come out of my mouth They have a tired tone, but they're my own And I've lived a thousand lives That no one will ever see So let 'em be or set 'em free
[Chorus] Because I'm old at heart And the people listenin' to me in the bar They see the youth that's in my eyes But if they saw the man inside They'd know my soul was gray and worn Cut from a cloth that's stained and torn Unraveled from the single thread With too many words I left unsaid And I know I don't look the part This young man, he's old at heart
[Outro] And I know I don't look the part But this young man, he's old at heartTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
