Favourite Songs Lyrics

My best years are behind me
But I'll be damned if I'm giving up
Your intervention was timely
I was acceptable at a push

Am I able
To sit at the big boys table
Or shall I stare at my navel
I'll never be seen as stable

Bathed in the light from the gymnasium
If your advice was a pill then I'd be taking some

Tell me your favorite songs
And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along
And all of our troubles will fade away

My worst years are behind me
I drink from a replenished cup
There's still a lack of certainty
History is constructed and there's the rub

Am I able
To sit at the big boys table
Or shall I stare at my navel
The grave is nearer than the cradle

Bathed in the light from the gymnasium
If your advice was a pill then I'd be taking some

Tell me your favorite songs
And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along
And all of our troubles will fade away
Tell me your favorite songs
And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along
And all of our troubles will fade away

It'll be churlish of me to complain
You must be used to it by now
I could've handled it more like a pro
But there you go
You should be used to it by now

When the ocean comes a-callin'
You'll be there like a shot
A walk across the suburbs
The land that time
The land that time
The land that time forgot

Tell me your favorite songs
And I'll tell you mine and we'll sing along
And all of our troubles will fade away

Just for a day
They'll fade away
If only for a day
