Lyrics
Well, I'm too old to know
Expressing uncertainty about one's age and understanding.
That I'm too young to stop
Feeling too young to give up or stop despite age.
But space and loam won't grow them back
Reflecting on the irreversible nature of time and its effects.
Well, no matter what I'm rollin'
Regardless of circumstances, the speaker is resilient and moving forward.
"To health" is what I've got
Expressing gratitude for good health.
Facin' the world ain't gonna make me snap
Facing challenges without breaking down.
You can find a mountain
Suggesting the availability of options or challenges in life.
You can pace me 'round top
Others can compete or keep pace, but the speaker is determined.
I'll tunnel down Broadway back to you
Willing to go through challenges for the sake of a connection.
You can tape me to the floor
Symbolic act of commitment, staying grounded.
Lock up all your doors
Suggesting a need for protection or isolation.
Close your eyes and listen for the truth
Encouraging introspection to find truth or clarity.
I never said it would be fun
Managing expectations about life's challenges.
And when all said and done
Reflecting on the completion of a task or journey.
The starting line was right there at my feet
Starting a journey with determination.
I never said that I would quit
Commitment to continue despite difficulties.
Hey there, friends, come get a load of this
Inviting others to witness or be part of the experience.
It would get crazy to be a man for my old lady
Embracing the chaos and challenges for the loved one.
From the wind that doesn't listen
Describing unresponsive elements of nature.
To the sea that doesn't shine
Accepting the predictability of certain aspects of life.
I can't say I'm surprised that I'm not shy
Acknowledging a lack of surprise in personal traits.
Oh, the sky shows me blue
Observing the beauty of the sky.
And your eyes show me you
Connecting the beauty of a loved one's eyes with the sky.
Every cell I've got fills up my heart
Feeling a deep emotional connection with someone.
But darling, when you need
Being there for the loved one in times of need.
To put your mind at ease
Offering support and reassurance.
I've got tickets to way you the came
Having something special to share when needed.
If you can't show up on time
Emphasizing the importance of punctuality.
Oh, if you make me wait a while
Expressing patience while waiting for someone.
I'll try my best to understand
Trying to understand delays with empathy.
I never said it would be fun
Reiterating the challenges of life.
And when all said and done
Reflecting on completing a task or journey with the same message as line 15.
The starting line was right there at my feet
Re-emphasizing the determination to start and finish a journey.
I never said that I would quit
Commitment to persevere despite challenges.
Hey there, friends, come get a load of this
Inviting others to witness or be part of the experience, same as line 18.
I'm gonna get crazy and be a man for my old lady
Expressing a willingness to embrace madness for the loved one.
