'Holding onto the Past' Well you're one half a century man And I'm one over the eight We've put up bricks with these four hands And we shut a dozen gates We stilled horizons in our quest To take down every star To give 'em hell n' beat the rest But I'm still at the bar I'm holdin' onto the past There's still some life in these bottles You know I can't run fast Yeah the future's forgotten I'm holdin' onto the past I'm lookin' over my shoulder I see nothin' will last Nah tomorrow is over Yeah bridges burn n' fall apart N' time is there to waste There's somethin' kickin' in this heart But I can't rely on fate Some can while the years away And others plan ahead You n' me we seen our day We made a barbed wire bed I've hitched a horse for every race To hold a middle age N' every line upon this face Is written from a page Winter took my frozen luck And summer lost my name Nothin' but the time is up The ending of the game Well you can write your diary Your journal or your book Just leave me to my memories And everything they took © Maria Daines/Paul Killington
