Good Advice

You can’t stay young forever
You don’t get old for free
But what was I supposed to do
With all this time between
I went to see a doctor
Who takes the blues away
The doctor looked me in the eyes
And this is what she said
PRE-CHORUS
No man is ever born alone
Only a fool dies on his own
Don’t say you’re scared to death
'Cos that’s like being terrified to live
On the day they judge my life
No doubt I’ll be criticised
Deemed a man and fool alike
For never taking good advice
So you say you’re an island
And I just disagree
Speaking from experience
And based on what I’ve seen
You’re not so much an island
As you are lost at sea
So I offer the same advice
That almost rescued me
PRE-CHORUS
No man is ever born alone
Only a fool dies on his own
Don’t say you’re scared to death
'Cos that’s like being terrified to live
On the day they judge my life
No doubt I’ll be criticised
Deemed a man and fool alike
For never taking good advice
