The JJ Ford Band - An Old Man Looks Back On His Life

As my life draws to a close
I'm looking back upon the path I chose
Beyond the price which I have paid
And the mistakes which I have made
It's said that time and tide waits for no man
While fate conspires to sabotage your plan
You cannot borrow time and you can't turn back the clock
So make the best in any way you can
And now the door is open wide, I'm walking through
With all your love on my side
Beyond the price which I have paid
And the mistakes which I have made
I should have listened to the things I learned in school
There really is no fool like an old fool
You cannot claim it back when you have given it away
So make the best in any way you can
Now I'm sitting in your garden with the sun upon my back
And now I can't recall the bad days but if I had my time again
I surely would do it all again, just the same, if I could
And now the door has finally closed
I'm on the other side to face what I supposed
Beyond the price which I have paid
And the mistakes which I have made
It's said that time and tide waits for no man
While fate conspires to sabotage your plans
You cannot borrow time and you can't turn back the clock
So make the best in any way you can
