about

This is a song about an old man looking back on the love of his life and how he feels about growing old with her.

lyrics

When I was young. I followed my heart. I tried to be good. I tried to make sense.

Became a man and dirtied my hands in the summer sand. Got blood on my chin in a midnight brawl..when things got rough.

I met a girl. She told me that we could navigate the world. We got into a boat and we began to sail. Swept into the night by a strong, almighty gale.

Don't wanna lose you to the dark
so I'm gonna fight to keep you warm in my heart
Cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older
.
Maybe a stubborn old man
but I'll do my best to hold your little cold hand
cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older.

There was a day. You wore a white dress. I carried you home. We made a big mess.

We'd lay awake to talk about adventures we were going to take, and carved out our initials on the wall beside...a cozy bed.

The years go by. We go on our adventures til the day we die. We make believe the winter is the summer sky and smile at the colorful birds as they fly by.

Don't wanna lose you to the dark
so I'm gonna fight to keep you warm in my heart
Cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older
.
Maybe a stubborn old man
but I'll do my best to hold your little cold hand
cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaooooooooooooooh!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoaoooaoaoooooooooH!

Don't wanna lose you to the dark
so I'm gonna fight to keep you warm in my heart
Cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older
.
Maybe a stubborn old man
but I'll do my best to hold your little cold hand
cuz it's getting colder and colder and colder
and we're getting older and older and older.

about

Obsolete Machines Austin, Texas

"Obsolete Machines are an Austin based band whose genre-bending music is thought-provoking and dark, but still melodic and memorable. They stick out, mainly due to the fact that they don’t rely on generic or traditional song structures sounds and approach. Their unique blend of machines and traditional instruments is fresh and compelling." -Tim Palmer ... more
