Testo di 'Greying' di Mark Minelli

Out of my mother, i came with a scream
And onto my feet, rose with a scheme and
Under my father, i learned how to move
And i move today, like he taught me to
Oooooo

Beside my sisters, i began to speak
Next to my brothers, i began to sing

And i got, hair on my chest, (on my chest)
More on my face, (my face) shadeless, brown, then grey
And i got, dirt on my hands (on my hands)
Blood in my veins that have, (in my veins) seen it's fair share, share of sunny days (sunny days)
And i said, (oooo) i will grow old, still
(oooo) i will grow old, still
(oooo) and i will grow old, still

Sitting a long, i heard myself think
Amidst a crowd, so the bottom of a drain
Out in the country, i learned how to hunt
Deep in the city, i go after what i want

And i got, lines on my cheek (on my cheek)
Stretched out my neck, (out my neck) i am not wise, but i am smarter now then then
And i got, a rhythm in my step (in my step)
Beat in my hear and i, (my heart) done all i can, and it is gotten me this far
And i said, (oooo) i will grow old, still
(oooo) and i will grow old, still
(oooo) and i will grow old, still
Oooo still

Beside a woman, i took my first breath
Next to a lover, first found i could laugh and
Around a child, i first saw myself
In front of a mirror, i see someone else

And i got, a creak in my back (in my back)
A wheeze in my breath and o, (my breath) the days of my youth have not forgotten me yet
And i said, (oooo) i will grow old, still
(oooo) and i will grow old, still
And i will grow old, still
(oooo) still, still, still
Ooooo, still
O, still
(oooo)
