“Old Before I Die” Lyrics

She’s taking me places,
I should never have been
She’s showing me faces,
I should never have seen
Well these are strange days,
We’re living in today
C’est la vie I say

I hope I’m old, before I die
I hope I’ll live to relive
The days gone by
I hope I’m old before I die
Well tonight I’m gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I’m old before I die

She’s not feeling stable
She’s unable to breathe
Her heart’s beating faster
So I’ll ask her to leave
These are strange days,
We’re living in today
Am I straight or gay?

I hope I’m old, before I die
I hope I’ll live to see the day
The Pope gets high
I hope I’m old, I hope I’m old,
Before I die
Well tonight I’m gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I’m old before I die

Well these are strange days,
We’re living in today
C’est la vie, I say, I say, I say

I hope I’m old (I hope I’m old)
Before I die
I hope I’ll live to relive
The days gone by
I hope I’m old before I die
Well tonight I’m gonna
Live for today
So come along for the ride
I hope I’m old before I die
I hope I’m old
Before, old before I die
Old before, old before I die
Die, die, die
Old before I die
Die, die, die
