Got Old
*music*
I was twenty one
I was thirty three
I was just a child
When I was seventeen
I got old And every year it is a different number
And every mirror is more like my father
I got old And now I'm comfortable
Within this world
And it's all I've known
I'm not ready to go
*music*
My arm's around you, you feel like my mother
Beneath the shoulder of my father
Yeah, they were young once
Yeah, in their own right
They were like us
I had a friend just like a child
Let him stay young, young and wild
Never got old, never got old
He died so young
Let the days move slow
As everyone I know grows old
Let them through, then go
Out the back door
And release the child in me
The child in me
The child in me
The child
Now there's nothing to do in this town
There's nothing to do in this town anymore
And no one is left around
There's nothing to do in this town anymore
I got old *music*
When I was young
Man, I was younger
You should have seen me
I was on fire
I was twenty one
I was thirty three
I was just a child
When I was seventeen
I got old And every year it is a different number
And every mirror is more like my father
I got old And now I'm comfortable
Within this world
And it's all I've known
I'm not ready to go
*music*
My arm's around you, you feel like my mother
Beneath the shoulder of my father
Yeah, they were young once
Yeah, in their own right
They were like us
I had a friend just like a child
Let him stay young, young and wild
Never got old, never got old
He died so young
Let the days move slow
As everyone I know grows old
Let them through, then go
Out the back door
And release the child in me
The child in me
The child in me
The child
Now there's nothing to do in this town
There's nothing to do in this town anymore
And no one is left around
There's nothing to do in this town anymore
I got old *music*
When I was young
Man, I was younger
You should have seen me
I was on fire
