by John Lennon
Original Manuscript, "Borrowed Time, June '80 Bermuda" (1980)
When I was younger *(ah hah ah hah ah hah)
living confusion and deep despair
when I was younger ah hah
living illusions of freedom and power
When I was younger
full of ideals and broken dreams (my friend) *
When I was younger ah hah
everything simple but not so clear. *
(I was) living on borrowed time
without a thought for tomorrow
Now I am older
the more that I see the less I know for sure
Now I am older ah hah
the future is brighter and now is the hour
Good to be older
would not exchange a single day or a year
Good to be older ah hah
As Recorded by John Lennon (1980)
When I was younger ah hah
Living confusion and deep despair
When I was younger ah hah
Living illusions of freedom and power
When I was younger ah hah
Full of ideals and broken dreams, my friend
When I was younger ah hah
Everything simple but not so clear
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Now I am older ah hah
The more I see the less that I know for sure
Now I am older ah hah
The future is brighter and now is the hour
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Good to be older ah ha
Would not exchange a single day or a year
Good to be older, you bet
Less complications, everything clear
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Oh yes, it all seemed so bloody easy then. You know, like what to wear, very serious, like, you know, am I gonna get the little pimples? Does she really love me, and all that crap. But now I don't bother about that shit no more, I know she loves me. All I gotta bother about is standing up. Uh-doo-doo-doo-doo-da-da-da-da-da, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, uh... All right you can get out now....
