Old Age Memory

I can’t remember what you said Cause it’s gone right out my head. When I asked you if you want tea Did you reply or say coffee? I don’t know what I came for When I opened this top drawer. I’ll go back to where I was To think of it once more. I can’t go back to where I was Cause I don’t know where I came from. It’s somewhere in this house I guess, But I know not where, I must confess. I can’t see without my glasses But I don’t know where they are. I can’t look for my lost glasses, Cause my eyes don’t focus far. And so each room, around I’ll feel Bumping as I go. Until I find them on my head; I’m a forgetful so and so. And so it is we all get old Though we thought it would never be. And if today you are young and bold Tomorrow you’ll be frail with a memory like me.
