Fountain of Middle Age
Well they told you that your life begins at forty
Well you know that's partly true... but mostly lies
And then they all come around to wish you a happy mild-stone
You just smile at them through the tear drops... in your eyes
Now you relate more to your parents then your children
Why your free spirit sits in shackles in it's cage
And you tell them all your fine
You don't worry about the passing of time
Mean while you're looking for the fountain of middle age
All the work you done finally start to pay off
Some of your dreams at last are come'n home
You and the wife have found some understanding
And your nestled deep into that comfort zone
Aye you wear old jeans and you bought a new corvette
And you wish your life would stand still at this stage
But when you look back on your youth
You know it slaps you with the truth
You're just looking for the fountain of middle age
Ohh you don't want to be any younger
Not unless you could know then what you know now
Noo you don't want to get any older
You just want to stay in limbo somehow
Well you heard them say.you ain't gonna take it with ya
It's enough to send a sane man into a rage
You could leave it to the kids
Or you can spend it all right here
On looking for the fountain of middle age
Now if you find that secret Jack.you be sure to call me back
We're all looking for the fountain of middle age
Well you know that's partly true... but mostly lies
And then they all come around to wish you a happy mild-stone
You just smile at them through the tear drops... in your eyes
Now you relate more to your parents then your children
Why your free spirit sits in shackles in it's cage
And you tell them all your fine
You don't worry about the passing of time
Mean while you're looking for the fountain of middle age
All the work you done finally start to pay off
Some of your dreams at last are come'n home
You and the wife have found some understanding
And your nestled deep into that comfort zone
Aye you wear old jeans and you bought a new corvette
And you wish your life would stand still at this stage
But when you look back on your youth
You know it slaps you with the truth
You're just looking for the fountain of middle age
Ohh you don't want to be any younger
Not unless you could know then what you know now
Noo you don't want to get any older
You just want to stay in limbo somehow
Well you heard them say.you ain't gonna take it with ya
It's enough to send a sane man into a rage
You could leave it to the kids
Or you can spend it all right here
On looking for the fountain of middle age
Now if you find that secret Jack.you be sure to call me back
We're all looking for the fountain of middle age
