lyrics

Young man when you’re 24
You’re like a kid in a candy store
You cannot see what’s down the road
Then one day you’re like an old stray dog
Stumbling through the morning fog
Just tryin’ to find your way back home

20 years beyond my prime
The kids are afraid that I’ll lose my mind
But I lose something every single day
When it’s time gonna build a pyre
In the parking lot of Canadian Tire
Light a fire to send me on my way

The kids bought me a talking map
Damn thing’s a piece of crap
Never takes me where I wanna go
I wanna go to my younger days
Before they take my car away
Places I don’t need a map to know

20 years beyond my prime
The kids are afraid that I’ll lose my mind
But I lose something every single day
When it’s time gonna build a pyre
In the parking lot of Canadian Tire
Light a fire to send me on my way

I’m on my way, Oh I’m on my way

“Great lyric perspective,” Vallance said after reviewing Paul’s I Don’t Wanna Write A Song. An “excellent song.”

This is honest music.
