The Older I Grow

The older I grow, the more I find
Every moment's a treasure, so I keep that in mind
Time's quick as a breeze, gone in a blink
So I live every second, no time to overthink

Yeah, the older I grow, the truer it gets
It's love that counts, not silver or debts
If there's a fountain of youth, well, I'd let it pass by
I'm right where I'm at, no need to deny

The older I grow, fewer folks by my side
But they're solid as rocks, so I'm filled with pride
With friends that are true, you don't need a lot
When they've got your back, you know what you've got

Yeah, the older I grow, the truer it gets
It's love that counts, not silver or debts
If there's a fountain of youth, well, I'd let it pass by
I'm right where I'm at, no need to deny

Yeah, the older I grow, the truer it seems
When to hold tight and when to chase dreams
If they pulled up youth, I'd let it roll by
Funny how life feels like it's soaring sky high

And these lines on my face, they don't trouble me none
Every tear, every laugh, like the rise of the sun
They're stories, reminders of the life that I've known
Little signs of each mile I've come to call home

Yeah, the older I grow, I think of those gone
Their spirits surround me, I carry them on
And one day I know that when my time is near
I'll walk with them too, with nothing to fear

Yeah, the older I grow, the sweeter it feels
For every day lived, the memories they've healed
If there's a fountain of youth, well, I'd let it drift free
I'm right where I'm at, no need to be me

And as I look back, there's more left to go
With the spirits of those I was blessed to know
The older I grow, the wiser I get
No need to rush now, no place for regret

And as I look back, there's more left to go
With the spirits of those I was blessed to know
The older I grow, the wiser I get
No need to rush now, no place for regret
