Ken's Song - 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
