In these last few days, you've been on my mind
An' we should get together an' talk about old times
An' put the past behind us before life slips away
I've been thinkin' 'bout you in these last few days
In these last few days, I have felt my age
I wish that I was younger but time has turned the page
I sure miss the water and the rhythm of the waves
I've been feelin' fragile in these last few days
But I have been a father, a husband and a son
Lookin' back is bitter sweet, now that my race has run
I've tried to be a witness from the cradle to the grave
Time has felt so precious in these last few days
In these last few days, I've seen the light
And I'll be waitin' for you on the other side
My old friend, I love you, that's really all there's left to say
Lay down here beside me in these last few days
My old friend, I'll miss you but I'm trying to be brave
Lay down here beside me in these last few days
