I try to live my life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
I've picked up more than I can chew
Only so much you can do
Wolves are gathering 'round my door
Ask them in and invite some more
I try to live my life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
ย
The old man said to me
Said don't always take life so seriously
Play the flute and dance and sing your song
Try and enjoy the here and now
The future will take care of itself somehow
Grass is never greener over there
Time will wear away the stone
Yes, the wretched bone
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
ย
The old man said to me
Said you can't change the world single-handedly
Raise a glass, enjoy the scenery
Pretend the water is champagne
And fill my glass again and again
While the wolves are gathering 'round your door
Time will wear away the stone
Yes, the wretched bone
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
ย
The old man said to me
Said don't always take life so seriously
Play the flute and dance and sing your song
Try and enjoy the here and now
The future will take care of itself somehow
Grass is never greener over there
Time will wear away the stone
Yes, the wretched bone
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
Don't go speed your time away
Don't try to live your life in one day
ย
Don't go speed your time away
