The older I get, the more this song resonates with me. I can remember when it came out in 1971, and I thought to myself.......how true.
I am especially cognizant of the power of music to connect with ones heart. Listen and remember..........

Old Man/ Neil Young

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.


Old man look at my life,

Twenty fourand there's so much more

Live alone in a paradise

That makes me think of two.


Love lost,

such a cost,

Give me thingsthat don't get lost.

Like a coin that won't get tossed

Rolling home to you.



Old man take a look at my life

I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me

the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes

and you can tell that's true.


Lullabies,

look in your eyes,

Run around the same old town.

Doesn't mean that much to me

To mean that much to you.


I've been first and last

Look at how the time goes past.

But I'm all alone at last.

Rolling home to you.


Old man take a look at my life

I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me

the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes

and you can tell that's true.


Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.
