Don't turn you r back on me
Con ceal and pr otect me
I need you to s top me from reeling around
The time's gonna come when
You no longer need me
But stay by my side til th e sun has go ne down
When I am an o ld man and live by th e sea
Will all your thought s fly t o me
As much as I want to
I can't hold on to you
When will you r eturn to you r old hom e again
May love lie a round you
Good fortune su rround you
You know where to turn to whe n you need a friend
When I am an o ld man and live by th e sea
Will all your thought s fly t o me
When I'm far a way f rom the places we've grown
Will all your love bring me h ome
When I am an o ld ma n and l ive by the s ea
Will all your thought s fly t o me
When I'm far a way f rom the places we've grown
Will all your love bring me h ome
