lyrics

You’re looking good - time’s been kind
Just a little older, maybe a little more lined
Though we fight the fade to grey
Truth be told, we had our day

I try to remember but sometimes I forget
There are gaps in the record, there are holes in my memory net
I wish I could answer all the questions in your quiz
But some things are lost for ever and that’s just the way it is

You’re asking me - can I recall?
Bits and pieces, by no means all
Just enough to reconstruct
A list of those I bought or bucked

As I look back upon my glittering career
I contemplate the twists of fate that lead me here

My mind’s a mirror, stained and cracked
Mixing fiction with the fact
The more I see the less is clear
The more I learn the more I fear
