"Go Be Young" by Edwin McCain

Perfumed and smoky   she swears that she knows me   she's
falling down drunk again   I say she's mistaken   she's
visibly shaken   emotions all drowned in gin   she said I
used to be beautiful  
Now it's all gone   I let my dreams slip away from me  
that's where it went wrong   go be young, go be free  
follow your heart where it leads you   don't end up like me 
 the indian in the gua
Se used to spin me yarns   stories of canyons and boston in
winter   and losing his family's farms   he said I've
outlived my three sons, they died in three wars   I laughed
and I cried while th
Ved and they died   and I know that they deserve more  
chorus   perfumed and smoky she swears that she knows me  
I'm falling down drunk again   I say she's mistaken   she's
visibly shaken   em
S all drowned in gin   isay I used to be powerful   but now
it's all gone   I let my dreams take control of me   that's
where it went wrong   chorus
