Ken`s Song — текст песни (Chantal Kreviazuk)

I hadn`t seen the boy in fifteen years
He had lines that said he cried a rainbow of tears
He left one day before his late night drives
He said everybody`s gotta make a sacrifice
So he replaced the old girl for a boat named Jen
He thought if anyone could love her
Well he was the man

He said my only fear is growing old alone
I`ve gotta get a lover for this telephone
It doesn`t matter if my number`s gone when I`m young
But I don`t want to grow old alone

Till the day Jen sunk she gave him love so true
She was appraised at fifty-one grand or two
It didn`t matter that she took every dime that he had
He had to get off the water and live by the land

He said my only fear is growing old alone
I`ve gotta get a lover for this telephone
It doesn`t matter if my number`s gone when I`m young
But I don`t want to grow old alone

When I spoke about Jen a tear flowed from his eye
It was the first and last time I saw a grown man cry
He said believe it or not I`m not scared to die
But I don`t want to grow old alone

He said my only fear is growing old alone
I`ve gotta get a lover for this telephone
It doesn`t matter if my number`s gone when I`m young
But I don`t want to grow old alone
