Went out walking through the woods the other day And the world was a carpet laid before me The birds were humming and the air smelled sweet and strange And it seemed like a hundred years ago
Mary and I we would sit upon a gate Just gazing at some dragon in the sky What tender days we had No secrets hid away Well it seemed about a hundred years ago Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles Living out a dream of what they was Don't you think it is sometimes wise not to grow up
Went out walking through the woods the other day Can't you see the furrows in my forehead What tender days we had No secrets hid away Now it seems about a hundred years ago Now if you see me drinking bad red wine Don't you worry about this man that you love Don't you think it's sometims wise noto to grow up
You're gonna miss this man and say goodbye Yeah I warn you You're gonna miss and say goodbye Yeah I warn you You're bonna kiss and say goodbye Oh Lord, I warn you And please excuse me while I hide away Call me lazybones, ain't got no time to waste away Lazybones, ain't got no time to waste away Don't you think, don't you think It is just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah
