Lyrics

?CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD?

V1
HE SITS AT THE BAR ALONE, HER MEMORY LEAST TWICE AS STRONG
AS THE DOUBLES HE KEEPS ON THROWIN? BACK
MONTHS OF LOVE ON THE ROCKS, HAS HIM THINKIN? DRINKIN?S NOT
ENOUGH TO PUT HER LEAVING, FOREVER IN THE PAST?

CHANNEL
HE TELLS THE BARTENDER HE?S HEARD TIME IS A HEALER
AND TRYING TO GET OVER HER, HAS HIM FEELING LIKE?

CHORUS
HE CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD
TO FINALLY LET HER MEMORY GO
HE?LL COUNT DOWN THE YEARS, TILL HE NO LONGER CARES
AND THE HELL HE?S BEEN LIVIN?, STOPS TAKIN? ITS TOLL
IF TIMES WHAT IT TAKES
HE CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD?

V2
FOR THE COST OF A DRINK, (BAR) TENDER A BE HIS SHRINK
AND LISTEN TO HIS PROBLEMS FOR A TIP
HOW SHE ENDED IN A DAY, THE LIFE HE TRIED SO HARD TO MAKE
(AND HOW) HE?S TRIED EVERYTHING BUT NOTHIN?S HELPED HIM YET...

CHANNEL
NOW HE?S DOWN TO THINKIN? THAT GRAY HAIR AND WRINKLES
SOME HOW DON?T SEEM THAT BAD, IF IT MEANS BEING FREE?

CHORUS
HE CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD
TO FINALLY LET HER MEMORY GO
HE?LL COUNT DOWN THE YEARS, TILL HE NO LONGER CARES
AND THE HELL HE?S BEEN LIVIN?, STOPS TAKIN? ITS TOLL
IF TIMES WHAT IT TAKES
HE CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD?

TAG
IF TIMES WHAT IT TAKES
HE CAN?T WAIT TO GET OLD?
