Many years have passed it seems
And now I'm all alone
I've sent the children far awa
To some obscure unknown
[Chorus]
It's so sad
So sad
Close another door
Listen to my eyes
Close another door
You're much too old to work
So won't you run away
When I was young I used to say
That age won't bother me
The life I had was very sad
It all went out to sea
It's so sad
So sad
Close another door
Listen to my eyes
Close another door
You're much too old to work
So won't you run away
And though the sun is in outside
The rain is in my hair
Now all my life is lived inside
My home is in my chair
It's so sad
So sad
Close another door
Listen to my eyes
Close another door
You're much too old to work
So won't you run away
Let me go
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane
I've paid before
But I've been told
At least I'm alive
I may be old but I've been told at least I'm still alive
Fly me up and send me off
I been working so so very hard at being young
but now I'm tired
I I've been told my arms said let me work it out baby
Work it work it work it out let me try
