maureen griffin - foolish old lady lyrics

Loading...

had a dream all my life, but was too scared to try
’til depression set in, and i knew d-mn well why
had an ache in my heart, a dream buried so deep
that i couldn’t express; just too far a leap

then i came to a crossroads. two choices i’d find:
go after that dream, or else lose my mind
while i oftentimes feel this is such a mistake
the heart of me shouts that it’s never, ever, ever too late

so, here i am now, gray hair on my head
should be rockin’ my porch; rockin’ music instead
charging into the world with a full head of steam
a foolish old lady chasin’ a dream

why do i do it? why don’t i give up?
why not stop now and say, “enough is enough”?
because when i’m in bed, i refuse to be shaken
by haunting regrets of roads not taken

so, here i am now, gray hair on my head
should be rockin’ my porch; rockin’ music instead
charging into the world with a full head of steam
a foolish old lady chasin’ a dream

what will it say on my tombstone one day?
will it say, “she was too full of pride”?
“a celebrity rare”? or a “wannabe fair”?
or simply, “at least, well, she tried.”

here i am now, gray hair on my head
should be rockin’ my porch; rockin’ music instead
charging into the world with a full head of steam
a foolish old lady chasin’ a dream
a foolish old lady chasin’, chasin’, chasin’ a dream
