Close Another Door

Many years have passed, it seems

And now I am all alone

I've sent the children far away

To some obscure unknown

It's so sad, so sad

Close another door

Listen to my eyes

Close another door

You're much too old to work

So won't you run away?

When I was young, I used to say

That age won't bother me

The life I had was very sad

It all went out to see

So so sad, so sad

Close another door

Listen to my eyes

Close another door

You're much too old to work

So won't you run away?

And though the sun is in outside

The rain is in my hair

Now all my life is mystified

My home is there in my chair

So so sad, so sad

Close another door

Listen to my eyes

Close another door

You're much too old to work

So won't you run away?

Let me go, send me flowers

And put me on a plane

I've paid before

So I've been told atleast I'm alive

Fly me young, fly

And get me up

I been working so, so very hard
