Old man said I should smile more Said he'd never seen Such empty face Didn't anyone ever tell you, girl You worth more than living in this Sad and lonely place So I gave him my best smile Trade my sorrows with some Of that old man's fire And ran to my feet Never wanted more Just a place to rest my head Never asked for much Just a steady heart To dance with Never had too much Just enough to keep me safe Never wanted more Until I saw that old man's face Old man said I should get away Never been nowhere Never took a chance And now his memories fade So I headed out west Never looked back I not gonna live and die With regret No, I never looked back Never wanted more Just a place to rest my head Never asked for much Just a steady heart To dance with Never had too much Just enough to keep me safe Never wanted more Until I saw that old man's face Oh, he's far away from here Oh, his words ringing in my ear Never wanted more Just a place to rest my head Never asked for much Just a steady heart To dance with Never had too much Just enough to keep me safe Never wanted more Until I saw that old man's face
