lyrics

I met a stranger in the park one day
Probably never meet again
Said something about the troubles she's been through
Time goes by

She said she'd like to prove something to somebody
But she don't know what
She'd stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day

(When I'm old)
Nothing is of consequence

Swore she'd never end up cynical or hopeless
But here we are
Said she went a bit too far, a bit too far, and pushed too hard
And she's alone

Working out the kinks and learning to live
Took much too long, much too long
So she'll stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day

Lacking in ambition
Nothing is of consequence
When I'm old

Met a stranger in the park one day
Never meet again
Said something about the troubles she's been through
Time goes by

She said she'd like to mean something to somebody
But she don't know what
She'll stand in line and pass the time and not intrude
On anybody's busy day

And now I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old
When I'm old
