24

Well, what do you know? Suddenly, you're older now They call you a grown up, with the dog and the bills and the garden And the picturesque house And the pear tree Is budding up a third year And if your mother were still here, the fallen blossoms on the lawn Would all disappear And you're in love You pray to God it's forever But you look around Think, "Why try altogether?" But he's endless and on my skin like Sand on the shore And that's enough for me right now anyway At 24 You travel the world Swim under a waterfall You have everything you ever wanted You wonder when your dad will call Then you're in New York again with your oldest friend And the basket of bread's still warm And that's enough for me right now anyway At 24 Oh I know more than I ever have And yet, I know nothing (nothing) At all I'm a floating feather I'm a constant cannonball (cannonball) I'm somebody's baby Someone else's midnight call (midnight call) I know more than I ever have And yet, nothing at all Well, what do you know? Suddenly you're 24
