Many years have passed, it seems,
And I am all alone
I've sent the children far away
To some obscure unknown

(Chorus)

It's so sad,
So sad
Close another door
Listen to my eyes
Close another door
You're much too old to work,
So won't you run away?

I was young, I used to say
That age won't bother me
The life I had was very sad,
It all went out to sea

(repeat Chorus)

Though the sun is in outside,
The rain is in my hair
Now my life is lived inside,
My home is in my chair

(repeat Chorus)

(slowerrepeatfade)
Let me go
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane
I've paid before,
So I've been told
At least I'm alive
