Many years have passed, it seems And I am all alone I've sent the children far away To some obscure unknown It's so sad So sad Close another door Listen to my eyes Close another door You're much too old to work So won't you run away? When I was young, I used to say That age won't bother me The life I had was very sad It all went out to sea And though the Sun is in outside The rain is in my hair Now my life is lived inside (Now all my life is mystified) My home is in my chair Let me go Send me flowers and Put me on a plane I've paid before So I've been told At least I'm alive (I may be old but I've been told at least I'm still alive Fly me young, fly, and tomorrow, yeah Get me up I been working so, so very hard)
