Lyrics

With time rushing by
What would you do?
With the clock running down
What would you do?
The young always have the cure
Being brave, being sure
And free
But imagine if you were me
Alone like me
And this is the only world I know
Some rooms to let
The sum of a lifetime
Even so
I'll take your advice
What would you do?
Would you pay the price?
What would you do?
Suppose simply keeping still
Means you manage until the end?
What would you do
My brave young friend?
Grown old like me
With neither the will nor wish to run
Grown tired like me
Who hurries for bed when day is done
Grown wise like me
Who isn't at war with anyone
Not anyone!
With a storm in the wind
What would you do?
Suppose you're one frightened voice
Being told what the choice must be
Go on, tell me
I will listen
What would you do
If you were me?
Written by: Fred Ebb, John Kander
