Poor old granddad I laughed at all his words
|
I thought he was a bitter man
|
He spoke of women's ways
|
They'll trap you then they use you & before you even know
|
For love is blind and you're far too kind
|
Don't ever let it show
|
I wish that I knew what I know now
|
when I was younger
|
I wish that I knew what I know now
|
when I was stronger
|
The can-can such a pretty show
|
will steal your heart away
|
But backstage back on earth again
|
The dressing rooms are grey
|
They come on strong and it ain't too long
|
For they make you feel a man
|
But love is blind and you soon will find
|
you're just a boy again
|
When you want her lips, you get her cheek
|
Makes you wonder where you are
|
if you want some more then she's fast asleep
|
Leaves you twinkling with the stars
|
Poor young grandson there's nothing I can say
|
You'll have to learn, just like me
|
And that's the hardest way, ooh la la
|
I wish that I knew what I know now
|
when I was younger
|
I wish that I knew what I know now
|
when I was stronger
|
