Your love
Husband’s lament
Taking my time
Odyssey
What you mean to me
Home
And when you’re older
One for the boys
Classics
Peace of my life
The things that mothers do
Advice to myself
Boomer’s lullaby


 What the song is about
A song that all baby boomers, or anyone who been around long enough to “know better”, can relate to about realising a little about what you want out of life and going for it.

There were times when I was handsome, sort of,
But those times have mostly passed
And there were days when those who spoke to me
Were well and truly sassed

And for years it seemed my only season
Was filled with summer nights
But the scene before me now,
Is lit by Autumn lights

 

And it's alright just to have your say
To see the sun as its rolling day to day
Everyone trying to find a way
To make a mark in time

And I believe in that patch of sky
Between the love and the sweet bye and bye
All in all, I'm a lucky guy
To live this life of mine

So much of what looks good in the window
Will leave you in dismay
But the love you chance upon
Will light you on your way

And through the years one thing or another
Is just no longer there.
But I like to think that I've maintained
A certain savoir faire

 

And it's alright just to have your say
To see the sun as its rolling day to day
Everyone trying to find a way
To make a mark in time

And I believe in that patch of sky
Between the love and the sweet bye and bye
All in all, I'm a lucky guy
To live this life of mine
