Oh have I seen to much

Verse 2

What will I be like
When my head is bear
And my legs are weak
Will I be stro-o-ong or barely keep alive
When I'm thirty-five
Reaching di- mensions that shatter con- ventions
Leads me to fear that I'm
grow ing old too

Bridge

With ev 'ry step and every breath
It's farther from youth and closer to death
And the things I've realized
Now beckon me to shut my eyes
And I will grow to the age of maybe eighty years
In such little time
With this venturous mind
