I'm tired and your tired too Coming to see me now and then. When You have the time Your tired and I don't blame you I can't explain this type of tiredness It's not a seasonal thing. It doesn't come When the season comes It doesn't disappear when the season Is over. It kind of lingers This tiredness permeats into the body Sort of alien ever so slowly overwhelmed Me and I'm powerless against the body Snatchers The mind is tired the eyes are tired. The Limbs are tired too Wearing the same old clothes and the same Old shoes Not that she can't effort to buy me new Clothes. Right now I don't need to I'm tired and your tired too The same old folks friends the same old Faces greeted me the same breakfast Welcome me every morning and I'll be Glad she comes and bring along her kids To see their granddad I can sit in the living room and watched TV I can sit at the window watching the grass grow I can hear the birds singing the **** crow I can hear the wind blow I can't wait for you to show up I know you're busy I don't want to interrupt I'm tired and your tired too And l longed to go back home. But I'll be Alone all the time. I don't want to bother You now I know you're busy. I know Your tired and I'm tired too

I'm Tired And Your Tired Too
I'm tired and your tired too Coming to see me now and then. When You have the time Your tired and I don't blame you I can't explain this type of tiredness It's not a seasonal thing. It doesn't come When the season comes It doesn't disappear when the season Is over. It kind of lingers This tiredness permeats into the body Sort of alien ever so slowly overwhelmed Me and I'm powerless against the body Snatchers The mind is tired the eyes are tired. The Limbs are tired too Wearing the same old clothes and the same Old shoes Not that she can't effort to buy me new Clothes. Right now I don't need to I'm tired and your tired too The same old folks friends the same old Faces greeted me the same breakfast Welcome me every morning and I'll be Glad she comes and bring along her kids To see their granddad I can sit in the living room and watched TV I can sit at the window watching the grass grow I can hear the birds singing the **** crow I can hear the wind blow I can't wait for you to show up I know you're busy I don't want to interrupt I'm tired and your tired too And l longed to go back home. But I'll be Alone all the time. I don't want to bother You now I know you're busy. I know Your tired and I'm tired too
As it was told to me at the old folks home where this man is one of the lucky ones who have a daughter who comes visiting him occasionally.
