I got away in the morning light After staying awake all night I saw that man standing by the sea I'm coming back here anyway Well I want to do good But I've been doing wrong I do what I do but I don't understand it I see and I hear But I don't know what you demand of me A gentle way can save a life You looked away and opened my eyes But I remember every word I spoke It still cuts like a sharpened knife Well I want to do good But I've been doing wrong I do what I do but I don't understand it I see and I hear But I don't know what you demand of me I was old from the start Now I'm young at heart I was old from the start Now I'm young at heart
