Don't Let it Bring You Down

I think I am in love.
With Neil Young, that is.
Ah, I just love his voice so much. I love the way he sings, the way he talks, the way he has such power and connection with his instrument. He has such a deep, slow talking voice compared to his high and delicate singing voice. Neil Young I want to have your babies!
Hahaha, no I won't go that far. But I do, do, do, do love you.
I want to put up some lyrics by my Neil, but I can't decide between Castles Burning, Man Needs a Maid or Old Man.
I guess I'll go with Old Man.

"Old Man"

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Oh, and also want to give props to Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie for being so freaking hilarious.
