23

Since I counted all my days
I've had a smile upon my face
And I've been walking unafraid
Sure of where my feet would land

No one told us how to grow
Some dug roots deep down below
I grew branches tall to see the stars glow
And I'm so glad my branch reached out to you

Twenty-three years on the ground
Gone by faster than the speed of sound
Twenty-three years on the ground
And not all of my friends are still around

Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Oooh

We flew over foreign land
Hopes on edge but hand in hand
With our branches made a nest
Keeping both our dreams inside our chests

Now it's hard to find the time
Caught inside everyday life
Making money working hard to survive
Leaving little time to let life shine

Twenty-three years on the ground
Gone by faster than the speed of sound
Twenty-three years on the ground
And not all of my friends are still around
Are still around
