Time’s Slipping Sand

When I was youthful me father said to me, he said to me 

He said never accept counsel when it desires free 

Cause you can have every one of the wealth of the brilliant kind 

Be that as it may, without the wealth of your genuine feelings of serenity 

He said you won't make old bones 

You won't make old bones 

You won't make old bones you'll see 

Furthermore, as the elderly people men sit and revile time's slipping sand, time's slipping sand 

I sit and I revile the time upon my hands 

Furthermore, the North Wind blows like a melody of the ocean 

The tune that it conveys comes plain to me 

Furthermore, says you won't make old bones, you'll see. 

There are a few people make comment on my wrinkles and grimaces, my wrinkles and scowls 

Also, state the main route is to get up is the point at which they turn you down 

Presently everyone offers a similar guidance 

They state, 'Go pursue an officers life 

Or on the other hand you won't make old bones, you'll see' 

So I went to the military like everyone instructed me to do, they guided me to do 

They said we'd love to make a fighter out of you 

In any case, before I put my name on hold 

Me fathers words came to me in time 

Furthermore, stated, 'You won't make old bones you'll see' 

I said 'Your weapons and your drums are not for any semblance of me, any semblance of me 

In spite of the fact that my future it may be more hopeless than somber can be 

'Cause you discuss many owing a lot to few 

At the point when all that I needed was a vocation to do' 

They said 'You won't make old bones you'll see' 

So you individuals in power and position, I let you know be careful, I let you know be careful 

Of your realities and your figures to reveal to you what, when and where 

'Cause your realities and your figures are any semblance of me 

What's more, don't attempt to reveal to me how my life ought to be 

Or on the other hand you won't make old bones, you'll see.
