Closer to Dead
I wish I had a nickel. I wish I had a dime
My poor papa, he said
For all those wasted moments, and all that wasted time
Now I'm closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
Every passing fancy you know keeps passing by
Some things didn't, some did
And everything and nothing at all I did and did not try
Now finds me closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
Every bridge I should have burned and every high and low
Things I ran to or fled
And everything I never learned, perhaps I'll never know
Now I'm closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now, It don't matter now
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
My poor papa, he said
For all those wasted moments, and all that wasted time
Now I'm closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
Every passing fancy you know keeps passing by
Some things didn't, some did
And everything and nothing at all I did and did not try
Now finds me closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
Every bridge I should have burned and every high and low
Things I ran to or fled
And everything I never learned, perhaps I'll never know
Now I'm closer to dead
So many years have gone away, so many things I never did say
So many times I should have cried
So many times I should never have lied
It don't matter now, It don't matter now
It don't matter now... that I'm closer to dead
