Gold In Timbuktu

When I am old and lonely

Would you still be there for me

'Cause now I have all of my strength

And you have all your beauty

When you're gold in Timbuktu

Will I still come look for you

Let's swim in the deep end

Make it warm that we can

For you, for me

Buried in the deep end

Life is one big weekend

Youth!

One day you have it and then

Poof!

It's gone with the wind

It's a kin to the end

And no matter how you fight it

How you light it, how you write it

Time is the pen out of ink

Poof, and I'm a living proof

I used to have it all young and uncoof

These days I hear on everything on delay

'Cause I wear an air piece just to hear what he say

When my son visit, I don't know why I get livid

Maybe I'm jealous of his age

My memories vivid I was just like him

Young like him,

Had a mouth on me a tongue like him

But now I'm feeling much weaker

Closest thing to my heart is a mandatory gripper

And my eyes ain't what they used to be either

But here's me singing promise from la Vita

When I am old and lonely

Would you still be there for me

'Cause now I have all of my strength

And you have all your beauty

When you're gold in Timbuktu

Will I still come look for you

Let's swim in the deep end

Make it warm that we can

For you, for me

Buried in the deep end

Life is one big weekend

Push!

One day you comin' and then

Woosh!

You'd be surprised how easy is

To be enticed and feasting life

Without the least of dreams suffice

So watch it fly fear to flight

So I'm busy chasing a decent size

Tush! and I ain't never been a wuss

Have more arms than an octopus
