Josh Joplin Group Half A Century High Lyrics

Half A Century High Lyrics

in the tube where i was born
i could have sworn
there was so much to
see
there was so little left to be 
but i was free

the world at my
command
through the doubts i ran
looking for a man
that looked like
me

and now it can be told
i'm a quarter a century old
but i'm a
half a century high

in the tube where i was grown
i was alone
the
figure on the floor
the dream behing the door
the sound was
low

ball game on the street
disappeared behing my feet
out of
breath my heart would beat
to see a show

and now it can be
told
i'm a quarter of a century old
but i'm half a century high

in
the tube where i was killed
i was fulfilled
the lines of light would
bend
i'd stare until the end
and then again

fascinated by the
fad
i gave all the mind i had
and whenever i was sad
i had my
friends

and now it can be told
i'm a quarter of a century of
old
but i'm a half a century high
