Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

Five Years

Five years, five years will wash this through my [?]

With no trace, angry and trouble go wild

Wishing when I knew that nothing's true

I turned to you and I knew

Nine years, nine years will turn my spirit cold

And I'll know, I'll know what life my years will hold

Feeling like I've lost all I know

I turned to you and I knew

But when I awake, I feel the cold

I've not too many years, but growing old

Sighing like a man who's seen too much

Like he's lost his touch

Like a man who's seen too much

Tonight I'll sit here waiting just the same

But no one but my ragged self to blame

Smiling when I see what life bring you

I turned to you and I knew

But when I awake, I feel the cold

I've not too many years, but growing old

Sighing like a man who's seen too much

Like he's lost his touch

Like a man who's seen too much
