Broken ©2021 Doug Kidder

Time got away from me – from us
Left me older too – us old and gray
Took away ability – our abilities
Candid but its true – and now we have to pay

Now I know that it’s gone (cause when it’s gone it's gone)
If I close my eyes  (and we close our eyes)
Looking back I will see (we will see)
In the life of me – in the life of me - that’s life – it’s 
When it's gone it's gone
And I close my eyes

Had a lot of fun – you know
All along the way
Not saying I’m done – you know
But I've had a better day

CHORUS

Up and down play the clown I’m broken
Laugh and cry don’t wonder why I’m broken
Seems so cold the getting old I’m broken
I'm broken down

Pick your road so carefully
It will change it all
Take the time to take it in
Don’t miss that call 

LAST CHORUS
Up and down play the clown I’m broken
Laugh and cry don’t wonder why I’m broken
It seems so cold the getting old I’m broken
So you're up and down you play the crown you're broken
Laugh and cry you wonder why you're broken
Seems so cold the getting old you're broken
You're broken down
