Let Him Be

March 25, 2008

Let him be
He’s just an old man
Let him tell his tall tales
Let him be the hero
He won’t harm anyone
He’s just an old man

Let him be
Let him have a few drinks
Let him have his say
Let him slur and swear
Let him raise that withered hand
Will he have the strength to harm you
If he’s just an old man?
