Standing In the Twilight

Well, I am just a backseat driver in your life now
No longer can decide where to go and when to turn
I hope you will remember that I got a lot of mileage
And that taught me not to choose whether to rust or to burn

When I was younger, it was easier to make up my mind
If I turned wrong, I could go back 'cause the distance was shorter
Here I'm standin' in the twilight of my middle age years
I just hope you know that I will always care

Oh, when you were a kid you maybe thought that I was flawless
But now I guess you know that I got lots of cracks and scars
But I hope you will see that I was just a human being
Stuck inside my puzzles, wide awake at night

When I was younger, it was easier to just run away
If I turned wrong, I could go back 'cause the distance was shorter
Here I'm standin' in the twilight of my middle age years
I just hope you know I will always care

We're both standin' on the threshold of another generation
We can't sneak past these crossroads without makin' a choice
But deep down in my heart, I know that you will make it
I can see it in your eyes, I can hear it in your voice

When I was younger, it was easier to make up my mind
If I turned wrong, I could go back 'cause the distance was shorter
Now I'm standin' in the twilight of my middle age years
And I just hope you know I'll always care
