Old Before My Time Lyrics
There is a long hard road
That follows far behind me
It’s so cold I’m about to die
Chasing a dream around the world
That’s got me feeling down
Though it used to make me high
Lookin’ for answers
Searchin’ for the truth
In an ocean of lies
Tryin’ to find a reason
To make the whole thing rhyme
Can make you old before your time
When I was younger
I thought I’d rule the world
It was oyster at my feet
Dancin’ to my own drum
Fishin’ out the pearl
Yes I would have been much more discreet
I lived a lifetime
Actin’ out a part
It’s been a long uphill climb
Now all the things that used to mean so much to me
Have made me old before my time
Wanderin’ aimlessly, I’m
Wanderin’ about
Would it ever be much different now?
Remind me of a past,
I slipped into a dream,
If only things ain’t never what they seem
(bridge)
Living like children,
Never doing what we are told.
Would not hesitate to take a chance
That road behind me now,
Is paved with fools gold
It’s almost time for the victory dance
No more feeling guilty
Bout the things I never did
Feelin’ nothing for my crimes
Living like a gypsy
Dreaming like a kid
Has made me old before my time
There is a long hard road
That winds so far behind me
That follows far behind me
It’s so cold I’m about to die
Chasing a dream around the world
That’s got me feeling down
Though it used to make me high
Lookin’ for answers
Searchin’ for the truth
In an ocean of lies
Tryin’ to find a reason
To make the whole thing rhyme
Can make you old before your time
I thought I’d rule the world
It was oyster at my feet
Dancin’ to my own drum
Fishin’ out the pearl
Yes I would have been much more discreet
Actin’ out a part
It’s been a long uphill climb
Now all the things that used to mean so much to me
Have made me old before my time
Wanderin’ about
Would it ever be much different now?
I slipped into a dream,
If only things ain’t never what they seem
Never doing what we are told.
Would not hesitate to take a chance
That road behind me now,
It’s almost time for the victory dance
No more feeling guilty
Bout the things I never did
Feelin’ nothing for my crimes
Living like a gypsy
Dreaming like a kid
Has made me old before my time
That winds so far behind me

When I was younger, I thought I ruled the world , It was an oyster at my feet, Dancing to my own drum, fishing out the pearl wish I could have been much more discreet I've lived a lifetime, acting out a part, Its been a long uphill climb, now all the things that use to mean so much to me Have made me old before my time, Chorus: Wondering aimlessly,wondering aloud, could it ever be much different now, Remind me of the past, I slip into a dream, funny things ain`t never what they seem,
Solo:
Living like children, never doing what we are told , Would not hesitate to take a chance, That Road behind me now was paved with fool’s gold, Its almost time for the victory dance, No more feeling guilty, for things I never did, feeling nothing for my crime, Living like a gypsy, dreaming like a kid, Has made me old before my time…
There is a long hard Road, it lies so far behind me…
Me...
