When I get even more
Old than I am now
I'll have a house
Overlooking the water
I'll read all the books
That I never got 'round to
And pile my suitcases
Up in the corner...
The lights of the city
They blink off and on again
Names in my memory are there,
Then they're gone again
Albums of photographs
Spread on the floor again
I'll spend my evenings
With Katherine of Oregon...
I'll fill my garage up with
Things I've no use for
Obsolete knick-knacks
That there's no excuse for
I'll turn my back on
The world's grand illusions
Take my delights in
The simplest amusements...
The lights of the city
They blink off and on again
Names in my memory are there,
Then they're gone again
Albums of photographs spread
On the floor again
I'll spend my evenings with
Katherine of Oregon...
I'll wear my clothes with
Their colors all clashing
They'll be so old that they'll
Come back in fashion
I'll sit on the beach with
My paper wrapped luncheon
I'll enjoy being
The ancient curmudgeon...
The lights of the city
They blink off and on again
Names in my memory are there
Then they're gone again
I'll have a jukebox and
Play Lonnie Donegan
And I'll spend my evenings
With Katherine of Oregon...
