Lingering Hippie

I'm just a lingering hippie Still living with my past I'm just a lingering hippie Still bending sail and mast I'm just an ageing sailor Still rockin’ on time’s boat I'm just an ageing sailor Still hearing each vinyl note I'm just a person whose friends are old Still dancing and wearing tie dye I'm just a person whose friends are old Still wanting a gentle high I'm just a lingering hippie Still seeing with tinted view I'm just a lingering hippie Still wondering what to do
