[Verse 1]

When I was young, I had a lover
But she died one day
So i'll never love another
No, i'll never love another the same
But I see her in the sky
Near that river bend
She's the moon, she is dressed in white
Oh night, don't end
No, oh

[Chorus]

I am growing old
And my knees are growing weak
I miss the one I loved when I was young
She's the only one for me
Oooh, ohhh
Oooh, ohhh

[Verse 2]

With my worm's eye view
Oh, I'm looking up to you
Praying with your bird's eye, you're looking at me too
I will make my way
Over to the great plains
'Cause next to you, I see heaven's gates
So night, don't end
No, night, no
[Chorus x2]

I am growing old
And my knees are growing weak
I miss the one I loved when I was young
She's the only one for me
Oooh, ohhh
Oooh, ohhh

I am growing old (Aaah)
And my knees are growing weak (Oooh)
I miss the one I loved when I was young
She's the only one for me
Oooh, ohhh
Oooh, ohhh

[Outro]

I will run
'Cause the morning brings the sun
And I will lose you when the night is done
Oh, I will run
'Cause the morning brings the sun
And I will lose you when the night is done
When the night is done
Oooh
