Lyrics

[00:31.99] Poor old Grandad
[00:35.01] I laughed at all his words
[00:38.24] I thought he was a bitter man
[00:41.36] He spoke of women's ways
[00:44.56] "They trap you, then they use you
[00:47.80] Before you even know
[00:50.92] Well, love is blind and you're far too kind
[00:54.19] Don't ever let it show"
[00:57.38] I wish that I knew what I know now
[01:02.16] When I was younger
[01:03.73] I wish that I knew what I know now
[01:08.63] When I was stronger
[01:10.24] The can-can such a pretty show
[01:13.47] Will steal your heart away
[01:16.66] But backstage back on Earth again
[01:19.10] The dressing rooms are grey
[01:23.09] They come on strong and it ain't too long
[01:26.13] 'Fore they make you feel a man
[01:29.46] But love is blind and you soon will find
[01:32.60] You're just a boy again
[01:36.06] 
[01:58.28] When you want her lips, you get her cheek
[02:01.59] Makes you wonder where you are
[02:04.61] If you want some more then she's fast asleep
[02:07.98] Leaves you twinkling with the stars
[02:11.50] Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say
[02:17.85] You'll have to learn, just like me
[02:21.15] And that's the hardest way, ooh, la-la
[02:26.95] Ooh, la-la-la-la, yeah
[02:31.05] 
[02:43.97] I wish that I knew what I know now
[02:48.98] When I was younger
[02:50.45] I wish that I knew what I know now
[02:55.47] When I was stronger
[02:57.78]
