If I Were Young

If I were young

I would go out to seek

and after calling my father

I would see if he would show me

what I had just found

if I were young

the world would be sepia

nostalgic now

and I wouldn't move into a city too soon

wouldn't move from a city too late

if I were young

I would learn to sleep on my feet

so that as an old man

I could die on my back
