Lyrics

[00:26.85] As far as my eyes can see
[00:35.20] There are shadows approaching me
[00:43.72] And to those I left behind
[00:48.45] I wanted you to know
[00:52.68] Youve always shared my deepest thoughts
[00:56.97] You follow where I go
[01:01.70] And oh when Im old and wise
[01:10.71] Bitter words mean little to me
[01:14.83] Autumn winds will blow right through me
[01:18.59] And someday in the mist of time
[01:27.79] When they asked me if I knew you
[01:31.50] Id smile and say you were a friend of mine
[01:36.98] And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
[01:45.33] Oh when Im old and wise
[01:52.52] As far as my eyes can see
[02:01.16] There are shadows surrounding me
[02:09.68] And to those I leave behind
[02:14.60] I want you all to know
[02:18.53] Youve always shared my darkest hours
[02:22.71] Ill miss you when I go
[02:26.96] And oh, when Im old and wise
[02:36.52] Heavy words that tossed and blew me
[02:40.54] Like autumn winds that will blow right through me
[02:44.27] And someday in the mist of time
[02:53.42] When they ask you if you knew me
[02:56.83] Remember that you were a frined of mine
[03:02.61] As the final curtain falls before my eyes
[03:11.21] Oh when Im old and wise
[03:18.27] As far as my eyes can see
