Older
Thought by now I'd know the answer
Wouldn't need to worry about me
Getting old
And being told
That a size 8 is what I should be
Thought by now I'd know the secret
And I wouldn't have to fight
But truth be told
Just getting old
That doesn't mean I'm getting it right
I can see my mother
The same age as I am now
And I know that my mother
Still hasn't figured it out
Why the world goes round and round
And the sun comes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older
But fight it anyway
'Cause there's two smaller versions
Of me, but I confess
I'm scared to say
They'll learn some day
'Cause it scares me half to death
And I don't wanna relive
All the years that went
Just wanna rewind
Just one more time
And see it all again
'Cause I can see my mother
The same age as I am now
And I know that my mother
Still hasn't figured it out
Why the world goes round and round
And the sun comes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older
But fight it anyway
And all I know is time forgets
And there it goes
But I'm not done yet, no, no
No, not even close
'Cause the world goes round and round
And the sun goes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older
Yeah, the world goes round and round
And the sun goes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, I'll get older
But fight it anyway
Wouldn't need to worry about me
Getting old
And being told
That a size 8 is what I should be
Thought by now I'd know the secret
And I wouldn't have to fight
But truth be told
Just getting old
That doesn't mean I'm getting it right
I can see my mother
The same age as I am now
And I know that my mother
Still hasn't figured it out
Why the world goes round and round
And the sun comes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older
But fight it anyway
'Cause there's two smaller versions
Of me, but I confess
I'm scared to say
They'll learn some day
'Cause it scares me half to death
And I don't wanna relive
All the years that went
Just wanna rewind
Just one more time
And see it all again
'Cause I can see my mother
The same age as I am now
And I know that my mother
Still hasn't figured it out
Why the world goes round and round
And the sun comes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older

And all I know is time forgets

No, not even close
'Cause the world goes round and round
And the sun goes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, we'll get older
Yeah, the world goes round and round
And the sun goes up and then goes down
But as sure as night turns into day, I'll get older
But fight it anyway
