  • No more tears, my heart is dry
    I don't laugh and I don't cry
    I don't think about you all the time
    But when I do — I wonder why
    You have to go out of my door
    And leave just like you did before
    I know I said that I was sure
    But rich men can't imagine poor
    One day baby, we'll be old
    Oh baby, we'll be old
    And think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    One day baby, we'll be old
    Oh baby, we'll be old
    And think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    Little me and little you
    Kept doing all the things they do
    They never really think it through
    Like I can never think you're true
    Here I go again — the blame
    The guilt, the pain, the hurt, the shame
    The founding fathers of our plane
    That's stuck in heavy clouds of rain
    One day baby, we'll be old
    Oh baby, we'll be old
    And think of all the stories that we could've told
    One day baby, we'll be old
    Oh baby, we'll be old
    Think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    One day baby, we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be old
    Think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    One day baby we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be old
    Think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    One day baby we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be one day baby we'll be old
    Baby we'll be old
    Think of all the stories that we couldn't told
    One day baby we'll be old
    Oh baby we'll be old
    And think of all the stories that we couldn't told Writer/s: ASAF AVIDAN, HADAS KLEINMAN, JONATHAN YONI JONI SHELEG, ORI WINOKUR, RAN NIR, ROI PELED
