100 Years Ago Songtext / Lyric

Went out walking through the woods the other day
And the world was a carpet laid before me
The birds were humming and the air smelled sweet and strange
And it seemed like a hundred years ago

Mary and I would sit upon a gate
Just gazing at some dragon in the sky
What tender days we had no secrets hid away
Well it seemed about a hundred years ago

Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles
Living out a dream of what they was
Don`t you think it`s sometimes wise not to grow up

Went out walking through the woods the other day
Can`t you see the furrows in my forehead
What tender days we had no secrets hid away
Now it seems about a hundred years ago

Now if you see me drinking bad red wine
Don`t worry about this man that you love
Don`t you think it`s sometimes wise not to grow up

You`re gonna miss this man and say goodbye
Yeah I warn you
You`re gonna miss and say goodbye (2x)
Oh Lord I warn you
And please excuse me while I hide away
Call me lazybones ain`t got no time to waste away
Lazybones ain`t got no time to waste away
Don`t you think (2x)
It`s just about time to hide away yeah yeah
