Gentleman Blue

[Verse 1]
16 in a body that′s lived 62
She's wearing pearls and laughing in her vintage shoes
Dress is worn, flower-born and shrunken through
Don′t think I've ever seen somebody so cool

[Pre-Chorus]
No she's not (Afraid of reiteration)
Smile is high (Living in pure elation)
Drive all night (1200 mile vacation)
These are the moments that make us

[Chorus]
She′s spinning while the world is dancing
Made friends with all the time that′s passing
The color in a fading room
I hope I'm going to be like you

[Verse 2]
She′s living her youth, now that's she′s retired
Now she's become someone she admires
And maybe while her smile lines are painted gold
She′s no longer afraid of growing old

[Pre-Chorus]
No she's not (Afraid of reiteration)
Smile is high (Living in pure elation)

Drive all night (1200 mile vacation)
These are the moments that make us

[Chorus]
She's spinning while the world is dancing
Made friends with all the time that′s passing
The color in a fading room
I hope I′m going to be like you

[Extended Chorus]
She's spinning while the world is dancing
Made friends with all the time that′s passing
She's the color in a fading room
I hope I′m going to be like you (Thinking 'bout you)
She′s spinning while the world is dancing (Gentleman blue)
Made friends with all the time that's passing (Beautiful through)
The color in a fading room (Gentleman blue)
I hope I'm going to be like you

[Final Chorus]
She′s spinning while the world is dancing
Made friends with all the time that′s passing
The color in a fading room
I hope I'm going to be like you

[Outro]
Thinking ′bout you
Gentleman blue
Beautiful through
