It’s with greatest sympathy,
I say goodbye to my youth.
You see I’m gradually ageing,
I’m getting long in the tooth.
It’s not that I fear getting older,
I welcome it if you like.
I suppose I’m sort of retro now,
new can go take a hike.
No I don’t want to be young again,
I quite like being mature.
My death is still an age away,
I hope so but I’m not to sure.
