One of the most underrated songs of this musical and you absolutely poured so much life into this already amazing song. You brought out new layers and a connection that really elevated the conversation of this piece in a way I hadnt seen (or heard) before. Beautifully done
Lyrics Take it from an old man. Time's just sand slipping past. We wanna hold it in our hands, But no one ever sees What falls through the cracks. Take it from an old man. My mistakes have made me, And i am what i am, And though i dont believe in silver linings, I belive there's something in you. Something good is trying to break through. You might have to fight the good fight. And when you think you can't, you can. Take it from an old man. Take it from an old man. The days don't stretch any longer. They've left tracks upon my skin, But i reckon made me stronger, But i believe there's something in you. Something you should be seeing too. Let it all on yourself at least one time. Cause honey win or lose, It's one hell of a ride. Soloist It's one hell of a ride Joe And if you like the strength of your own, Honey, hold out your hands and Take it from an old man.
Sobbing... actually sobbing. That was so beautiful ❤️❤️
Beautiful rendition of a lovely song
This is my song for my Grandpap and my dad. Thanks for doing this. 💜

Lyrics
Take it from an old man.
Time's just sand slipping past.
We wanna hold it in our hands,
But no one ever sees
What falls through the cracks.
Take it from an old man.
My mistakes have made me,
And i am what i am,
And though i dont believe in silver linings,
I belive there's something in you.
Something good is trying to break through.
You might have to fight the good fight.
And when you think you can't, you can.
Take it from an old man.
Take it from an old man.
The days don't stretch any longer.
They've left tracks upon my skin,
But i reckon made me stronger,
But i believe there's something in you.
Something you should be seeing too.
Let it all on yourself at least one time.
Cause honey win or lose,
It's one hell of a ride.
Soloist
It's one hell of a ride
Joe
And if you like the strength of your own,
Honey, hold out your hands and
Take it from an old man.
This damn song wrecks me every frickin time.
So sad to hear the announcement, on World Theatre Day of all days... fabulous rendition, I hope we see Waitress back in the West End one day
This is amazing, but you're crying. - Gonna miss you, Waitress 😭🥧❤️️
Best song in the waitress imo
