lyrics

The wise old man counts his diamond rings,
for all the rust they're worth.
His weathered skin storms to ashes,
as this phoenix is re-birthed.
And he is not broken,
the way they make it seem.
And all his teeth turn to black,
a lost love that he can't get back.
he's going on a century,
and whispers out "you're still a part of me"
and he is my hero
the man of rags and philosophy
and he may not leave me with wealth
but his love is worth all of the money
waiting on yesterday
but it's not coming
waiting on a train to take me away
but as i see it i start running
