I wish that ...
I knew what I know now...
When I was younger









Some kid made a video to "Ooh La La," by The Faces. I love that song. A 15 year old kid made a video for a Faces song. In about 10 years, at their reunion, and maybe not even then because they probably won't be ready yet, they are going to realize just how cool this kid was. Right on.




I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.

The can cans such a pretty show
They'll steal your heart away
But backstage, back on earth again
The dressing rooms are grey

They come on strong and it ain't too long
Before they make you feel a man
But love is blind and you soon will find
You're just a boy again

When you want her lips, you get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more and she's fast asleep
Then she's twinkling with the stars.

Poor young grandson, theres nothing I can say
Youll have to learn, just like me
And that's the hardest way
Ooh la la

I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.

Co-written by Ron Wood (also doing the vocals) and the late great Ronnie Lane. Now dive further into the catalog and listen to "Richmond" and "Glad and Sorry".

I know I still owe you the discs. One day I'll remember to burn them.
