As I approach the prime of my life,
I find I have the time of my life
Learning to enjoy at my leisure
all the simple pleasures
And so I happily concede
That this is all I ask, this is all I need

Coming of age in wartime. Just left the theatre in silence.

 

[CL82]

The beer was empty, and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away

Just for a moment, I was back at school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rain

 

[Aluminny69]

Coming of age in wartime. Just left the theatre in silence.

There are lyrics to this beautiful tune

 

[Bigboote]

Good one, here's one featuring his niece, Victoria, and Beach House.

You surprised me with this one. I know your tastes are eclectic, but didn't realize Beach House is in your repertoire.
