Favourite Songs

My best years are behind me But I'll be damned if I'm giving up Your intervention was timely I was acceptable at a push Am I able To sit at the big boys' table? Or shall I stare at my navel? I'll never be seen as stable Bathed in the light from the gymnasium If your advice was a pill, then I'd be taking some Tell me your favorite songs And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along And all of our troubles will fade away My worst years are behind me I drink from a replenished cup There's still a lack of certainty History is constructed and there's the rub Am I able To sit at the big boys' table? Or shall I stare at my navel? The grave is nearer than the cradle Bathed in the light from the gymnasium If your advice was a pill, then I'd be taking some Tell me your favorite songs And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along And all of our troubles will fade away Tell me your favorite songs And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along And all of our troubles will fade away It'll be churlish of me to complain You must be used to it by now I could've handled it more like a pro But there you go You should be used to it by now When the ocean comes a-calling You'll be there like a shot A walk across the suburbs The land that time, the land that time The land that time forgot Tell me your favorite songs And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along And all of our troubles will fade away Just for a day They'll fade away If only for a day
