TO MY SURPRISE
HAVE WE COMPROMISED
THE GOLDEN YEARS OH YES
THEY AREN'T WHAT YOU'D GUESS
YOU FINALLY GET TO RETIRE
YOUR LIFETIME PLANS
YOU THINK YOU CAN DESIRE
YOUR CHIDREN WANT YOU TO MOVE INTO THEIR HOME
THEY THNK YOU CAN NO LONGR LIVE ALONE
THNGS ARE GOING GREAT
UNTIL YOU GET SICK
THEN OFF TO THE HOME
IT'S OKAY THEN, FOR YOU TO BE LEFT ALONE
THEY SAY, YOU'LL ONLY BE THERE FOR A WHILE
BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, YOUR THERE UNTIL YOU EXPIRE.
OH, YES THE GOLDEN YEARS I REMEMBER THEM WELL
