John T. Wurzer - As Old As You Look

I'm as old as you look
You're as young as I feel
So, hey put down that book
And let's make a deal
Let's get lost in a story that we write with each breath
Every smile, scented style, for a while no more unworthiness
And it's true that it might be just for a night
And we'll wake and find that none of this is real
But for now be my doll, don't ask why, don't ask how
'Cause I'm as old as you look and you're as young as I feel

Paradise, afternoon, jazz band plays
One more tune, rising three quarter moon hits the skies
You sit and read while I write, as the day turns to night
Shadows grow left to right, on your eyes
I'm past my prime; you're ill at ease
Rubbing that sunscreen all over your knees
Seems that each stroke is merely a tease
Some kind of game that you play
Honey I've got to say

I'm as old as you look
You're as young as I feel
So, hey put down that book
And let's make a deal
Let's get lost in a story that we write with each breath
Every smile, scented style, for a while no more unworthiness
And it's true that it might be just for a night
And we'll wake and find that none of this is real
But for now be my doll, don't ask why, don't ask how
'Cause I'm as old as you look and you're as young as I feel

Evening sun going down, and there's no one around
I'll be blowing this town Saturday
Let's go down to the shore, and attempt to explore
Something more that we don't need to say
I am over a hill that you never have climbed
For a cheap enough thrill I'd go out of my mind
I came here to meditate, pause, and unwind
So why am I dancing this dance
Should we give this a chance
