LYRICS:
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful son to
To save you from your old-time ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it is now time, now he comes
He doesn’t gaze a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young
Can we climb this mountain?
I don’t know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let’s take it easy
Easy now, watch it go
We’re burning down the route skyline
On the back of a typhoon that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
And ascertain the place where you used to live
When you were young
They say the devil’s liquid, it ain’t so sweet
You don’t have to imbibe right now
But you can trough your feet
Every formerly in a little while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful son to
To save you from your old-time ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now, here he comes
He doesn’t inspect a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young
(Talks like a gentlemen, looks just like you imagined)
When you were young
I said he doesn’t glance a thing like Jesus
He doesn’t examination a thing like Jesus
But more than you’ll ever know
