“The Older I Get”
Savor the second,
Treasure the time,
The world’s gone crazy,
It’s sane to lose your mind.
The sun’s gone down.
The chill is in the air.
We haven’t talked.
Doesn’t mean I don’t care.
The older I get, the more people die
I wish I got to say goodbye.
The longer I live, the more people die.
I am sorry I did not get to say goodbye.
I could lay flowers at your grave.
Plant a tree to sit underneath and pray
That you forgive me,
That you are at peace.
I’ve got memories of you to keep me company.
The longer I live the more people die.
I am sorry I did not get to say goodbye.
The older you get, the more people die.
I wish I got to say goodbye.
Keep, keep soldiering on.
Keep, keep soldiering on.
Your spirit will endure
as long as I am alive.
And mine will too
by whom I am survived
I don’t not want this to be a song of sadness,
But a song of hope of pleasure to know.
The older I get, the more people die.
Older I get , say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye.
