lyrics

All the pretty girls are growing older. 
I don’t know why they always want to call me “sir”. 
The tattooed ponies prance across their shoulders. 
The years gallop past us in a blur.

All the old boys are down at the casino
With the Rock and Roll Legends from a long time ago. 
The Mustangs, Corvettes and El Caminos
Are lined up like stallions in a row.

Hold on tight to the tender hands of time. Buddy, it’s an uphill climb. 

When I told you I would love you forever, 
I did not know the distance — does that mean I lied? 
But you held me close in my hour of darkness, a
And you loved me like forever when I cried.

Hold on tight with your tender hands of time. Darlin’, it’s an uphill climb. 

When this tired world comes to some conclusion, 
And beauty falls like manna from skies so sublime, 
We will wonder how we suffered our illusions 
When we let go of the tender hands of time.

Hold on tight to the tender hands of time. Man, it’s an uphill climb.
