never too old (to hold somebody)
Don't abandon the light Don't step away Don't give up that tune That you never could play If you're folding your tent And the gas pipes groan  If every bone rattles Through nights all alone Well you're tougher than leather No old burlap sack Not some hard scrabble weeds Growing up through the cracks  [Chorus] Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody You're never too old to hold somebody  Don't think you've gone out Don't flicker and fade If you're gonna get lemons Then you do what they say The wind makes you weary It knocks you around  Logs on the fire Beats sun shining down But you're harder than nails No skinny old tack You're still sharp as a razor And I like you like that  [Chorus]  I could bet on a horse But I'm betting on you You still got what it takes You got nothing, nothing to prove  [Chorus]
