- This Old Man Lyrics / with translationsThis old man
He worked for thirty years with
Two strong hands
In the factory light his
Lunch box held all his needs with
Coffee sandwiches and dreams
For me
This old man
He taught me many times
To understand
That showing love is simply
Noting you should have to hide
Don't keep your feelings locked inside
He said
When I was young
I dreamed a young man's dreams
I saw in your eyes
The things I'd never seen
But now I grow old
But I don't really mind
Cause can't you see
With my family
We'll share these timeless memories
He worked for thirty years with
Two strong hands
In the factory light his
Lunch box held all his needs with
Coffee sandwiches and dreams
For me
This old man
He taught me many times
To understand
That showing love is simply
Noting you should have to hide
He said
When I was young
I dreamed a young man's dreams
I saw in your eyes
The things I'd never seen
But now I grow old
But I don't really mind
Cause can't you see
With my family
We'll share these timeless memories
