Don't Take This Old Fool









What have you done - you old fool?
Gone off and lost your mind
Somewhere near where memories pool
To slowly evaporate; it's so unkind.

How the world has become so closed
And left you alone and confused
If you could only run - do you suppose
What you could catch would be of any use?

Your eyes do not follow along much anymore
Although an old song still makes your toes tap
While waiting for something; someone once more
Before the night takes you into that last nap.

What have you done - you old fool
Have you broken the one last rule?
