I have wondered, I have worried
And I've walked a complicated line
I have hungered, I have hurried

And I've almost lost my mind
Feelin happiness, does not have to be
A smile of regret, that's left from behind
Had no choice, and could not speak a word
But the picture is fading, and I'm tired of waiting ...

There'll be faces at the doorway
Torn between the right and the wrong
And the road I have followed
Left me to sing an older man's song
Had no choice, and could not speak a word
But the picture is fading, and I'm tired of waiting ...
