Re: Birthday song...............
Happy 84th to you Captain.
Heres another great song from the Faces about age and wisdom.
https://youtu.be/Qg3dF02FQVM
OOH-LA-LA - The Faces.
[Verse 1]
Poor old Grandad
I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
He spoke of women's ways
"They trap you, then they use you
Before you even know
Well, love is blind and you're far too kind
Don't ever let it show"
[Verse 2]
The can-can such a pretty show
Will steal your heart away
But backstage back on Earth again
The dressing rooms are grey
They come on strong and it ain't too long
'Fore they make you feel a man
But love is blind and you soon will find
You're just a boy again
[Verse 3]
When you want her lips, you get her cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more then she's fast asleep
Leaves you twinkling with the stars
Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say
You'll have to learn, just like me
And that's the hardest way, ooh la la
Ooh la la la la, yeah
[Chorus]
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger

Happy birthday Brian, age is just a number, as long as we can look after ourselves, just keep going. The one thing old age cannot do, is take our memories of years gone by, and what years they were !!!!, what a life we lead, regards kt
