Old Man Music

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes words just slip away,
Heavy hearts with things we can't say.
No map for sorrow, no easy road through,
You can never bring her home, it's just true.
[Chorus]
All I need is someone to listen,
A quiet friend when the world goes missing.
You can't fix the pieces scattered on the floor,
But hiding in the open is all I can explore.
[Verse 2]
We can talk on the phone or in a room.
No questions asked, no need to assume.
Tears may fall or laughter may fade,
But your presence is the comfort I've craved.
[Chorus]
All I need is someone to listen,
A quiet friend when the world goes missing.
You can't fix the pieces scattered on the floor,
But hiding in the open is all I can explore.
[Bridge]
There's so much pain we can't undo,
No words will make the sky less blue.
But in the quiet, I find my way,
With no one beside me, it's okay.
[Chorus]
All I need is someone to listen,
A quiet friend when the world goes missing.
You can't fix the pieces scattered on the floor,
But hiding in the open is all I can explore.
[Outro]
So if you can't heal the aching in my chest,
Just be here and let my heart rest.
Sometimes the only thing that gets me through
Is knowing I can sit here hidden in full view.
