I went for a walk the other day I saw a man who didn't seem to have a Reason to smile After looking at his face I knew that If I were him I couldn't turn my mouth up I thought i'd give him some time so I sat down Then he started to cry and said he is a Old man with a young mans heart You may be wondering how it gets this far Open an ear boy let me tell you how it goes It was a rainy night twelve years ago I had a nice wife, three kids and a good home I was waiting impatiently the phone rang The voice was calm and he said I'm sorry sir your family's gone They're at a train track, the engine stalled Nothing at all could be done to save them Sorry again about this call cause you're a Young man with an old mans heart You may be wondering how it gets this hard Don't you fear son this will pa** before you know Can you imagine Everything you wanted Everything you hoped for Everything you needed Can you imagine It all just leaves you drowning In pools of self destruction I don't think you can It wont hurt if you don't want it to You can stand for your pride or Lay down a die Now son you've gotta keep in mind All the tears And the pain and the blame And everything in between And then you realize no one cares And I said Young man with an old mans heart You may be wondering how it gets this hard Don't you fear son this will pa** before you know Can you imagine Everything you wanted Everything you hoped for Everything you needed Can you imagine It all just leaves you drowning In pools of self destruction I don't think you can I went for a walk the other day I saw a man who didn't seem to have a Reason to smile Have you ever heard of a hurricane It takes your life and your breath away Have you ever heard of a hurricane It takes your life away
