Testi musica canzoni

Well, i met an old man walkin' down the street
His clothes were torn and tattered
With sandals on his feet
And i stopped to help him
And lend him a hand
He said, i love you so much
But you must understand
1st chorus:

Silver and gold might buy you a home
But things of this world
They won't last you long
And time has a way of turning us old
And time can't be bought back with silver and gold

And he said to me, let's rest for awhile
For i have some good news to share with you, child
He said, you can't change this old world
The people need to know
That a dear savior died here
A long, long time ago

Repeat 1st chorus

His eyes shown like diamonds
And his smile was heaven sent
His hair was long and flowing
And his back was slightly bent
And i knew he knew it
For that day i changed
As i watched him walk on
I forgot to get his name

2nd chorus:

He said, silver and gold can't buy you a home
When this life has ended
And your time is gone
But you can live in a world where
You'll never grow old
And things can't be bought there with silver and gold
