Older too

[Verse 1]
I watch the years go by
On my mother's hands
The lines look like a map
To where I stand

Used to think time moved slow
Now it cuts right through
Every face I know
Is changing too

[Pre-Chorus]
And I swear I felt young
Just a minute ago
Now the mirror keeps telling me
What I already know

[Chorus]
Getting older too
Getting older too
I used to be young
Now I’m changing with you

Getting older too
Getting older too
Everybody grows old
And I’m growing old too

[Verse 2]
My friends talk about rent
Baby names and sleep
Little reasons to stay
Little vows to keep

I still hear that kid in me
Running down the hall
But he sounds farther off
Every fall

[Pre-Chorus]
And I swear I felt young
Just a minute ago
Now the mirror keeps telling me
What I already know

[Chorus]
Getting older too
Getting older too
I used to be young
Now I’m changing with you

Getting older too
Getting older too
Everybody grows old
And I’m growing old too

[Bridge]
If I can’t hold back time
Let me hold this day
Let me love what’s here
Before it slips away

[Chorus]
Getting older too
Getting older too
I used to be young
Now I’m changing with you

Getting older too
Getting older too
Everybody grows old
And I’m growing old too
