don't cry, old man - janis ian lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
winter’s cold, summer’s hot
love is old, dreams are not
times are hard and so am i
tired heart, too tired to cry

[pre*chorus 1]
dreams are all i have to give
when we die our dreams still live

[chorus]
old man, i’m thirsty still
one day i’ll drink my fill

[post*chorus]
oh, i’ve been away too long
i’ve been away too long
i don’t remember how it’s done

[verse 2]
can i call on you for help
do i have to help myself
are you glad with what you’ve got?
are you burning, are you hot?

[pre*chorus 2]
when we’re old, like as not
we will burn until we rot
[bridge]
don’t weep, old man, don’t weep, don’t cry
i knew you when
i was so much coldеr then
fathers always build the drеams
children tear apart the seams

[chorus]
old man, i’m thirsting still
one day i’ll drink my fill

[pre*chorus 3]
old man, please don’t die
before our thirst is satisfied
