Ages

We’d search for ages
But when did we get so old?
Our feet on the pavement
Are growing cold
We left for adventure
And came to four inch scars
There I saw the wonders
With my eyes
Oh, Pilgrim you’ve got my ear
Won’t you tell me the stories of your younger years
For a show or for your freedom?
It left me to decide
And then your pride began to show
As well as mine
And we fought with the Devil all through the night
And my faith was shaken though our flags were high
And all this, nobody never left my side
And we fought with the Devil all through the night
(when did we get so old?)
And the angels sang through their home in July
(We searched for ages but when did we get so old?)
And the Ladies sang standing up while you sang
(we searched for ages but when did we get so old?)
And the fireplace sang til' the light of day
(our feet on the pavement growing cold)
