Poppy Im Poppy Lyrics

[Chorus 1]
How 'bout being young and how 'bout being old
How 'bout wantin' somethin' warm just to hold you when you're cold
How 'bout take me in your arms tonight and feel the way I fold

[Verse 1]
Choosing teams to play the game
But as fate would have it, they forgot my name
So now I'm barefoot on the blacktop but it smells like it might rain
Tell me, friend, have you ever felt this way?

[Verse 2]
Upon the hour the clock'll chime
Yeah you can hear her laughing all the time
But it ain't really funny, she can't help the things she knows
She's tired of telling all the same old jokes

[Chorus 1]
So how 'bout being young and how 'bout being old
How 'bout wantin' somethin' warm just to hold you when you're cold
How 'bout take me in your arms tonight and feel the way I fold

[Verse 3]
So I made a wish, it's just for you
I went outside and I found you the moon
But you dropped it in your pocket, you foolish little boy
Don't you know it wasn't like those other coins?

[Chorus 2]
So how 'bout being young and how 'bout being old
How 'bout wantin' somethin' warm just to hold you when you're cold
How 'bout calling someone's name and hearing nothing in return
How 'bout reaching for the iron just to feel it burn
How 'bout forgetting all the things you learn despite what you've been told
How 'bout take me in your arms tonight and feel the way I fold
How 'bout being young and how 'bout being old

[Verse 4]
So how 'bout this, I've got the blues
Got this feeling in my bones I can't refuse
There's lots of wanting in this world that someone's gotta do
Tonight I guess I like the looks of you

[Chorus 1]
How 'bout being young and how 'bout being old
How 'bout wantin' somethin' warm just to hold you when you're cold
How 'bout take me in your arms tonight and feel the way I fold
How 'bout being young and how 'bout being old
