[Verse 1]
Don't turn your back on me, conceal and protect me
I need you to stop me from reeling around
The time's gonna come when you no longer need me
But stay by my side till the sun has gone down

[Chorus]
When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?

[Verse 2]
As much as I want you, I can't hold on to you
When will you return to your old home again?
May love lie around you, good fortunes surround you
You know where to turn to when you need a friend

[Chorus]
When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
When I am far away from the places we've known
Will all your love bring me home?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
When I am far away from the places we've known
Will all your love bring me home?
Bring me home
[Instrumental Outro]
