The hairs on my head are graying
My mirror says it’s sad but true
The ends of my nerves are fraying
As my handle-on-things comes unglued
The words from my lips are mumbled
Just mute to explain how I feel
The thoughts in my head are jumbled
They hiccup, they stumble and they reel
The weight on my heart is heavy
With an ache more than it can bear
Once-upon-a-time you loved me
Today you don’t know if you even care
The love of my life is jaded
Light years beyond way back when
The gleam in her eyes has faded
Will I ever see that sparkle again?
