Jandek - New Rendezvous lyrics

rate me

You're only as young as your heart

Though the years pass on and on

If it's new and you grow

With each moment

And the air and the vision

You see out your eyes

Change in a wonderful way

Then the times are well spent

And the gifts are all around

And your eyes light up

And the day is a new rendezvous

Then you're only as young as your heart

Your steps are light as a feather

You're walking on clouds, you know

You've gained and you've lost

And you still come around

With a gift and a word to the wise

You're only as young as your heart

There's times I know you feel lonely

For the friends who've passed you on by

But be free and you'll see

That it only comes to be

Another way back to your heart

And in that place you'll find

A happy way to exist

Where this one and that one you meet

Are a lot better off than before

So be thankful for all that you've got

And you'll get much more than you had

For there's dreams, there's schemes and things planned

And they all have nothing in mind

You're only as young as your heart
