Old Man
Song by OK Otter
I’m just an old man
Counting the days
Till I can see you again
If you’ve been watching the whole time
You should know
That she is just a friend
I get lonely in the winter
And at Christmas the kids
They’re spread across the country
I’ve been taking care of myself
'Cause I know that you want me
Around for them
Lying in our bed
And they tell me that the end
Is coming soon
But I know you’re waiting for me
With a glass of red wine
And a few good stories to tell me
So I just have to wait
The priest just left
Our oldest is at my bedside
He’s got a grandkid of his own
Look at this family we’ve made
We’ve done some pretty great things
Counting the days
Till I can see you again
If you’ve been watching the whole time
You should know
That she is just a friend
I get lonely in the winter
And at Christmas the kids
They’re spread across the country
I’ve been taking care of myself
'Cause I know that you want me
Around for them
Lying in our bed
And they tell me that the end
Is coming soon
But I know you’re waiting for me
With a glass of red wine
And a few good stories to tell me
So I just have to wait
The priest just left
Our oldest is at my bedside
He’s got a grandkid of his own
Look at this family we’ve made
We’ve done some pretty great things
