You Stay Young

Wake up sweatin' on the roof, a blood-red sun

Grab your pants, tie your shoes, do your buttons on the run

Run past the park where we played grounders in the dark

Past your old backyard, we would fight for Kayla's vicious heart

Through the woods, to the diamond with them Roman candles flying

To the tracks at the back, when blood and steel go colliding

Oh, them crashing summer nights, tattooed to them little lights

In the eyes of every man, they flicker on and off again

Look what you done, hey, you proved me wrong

I get older, and you stay young

Just like the turtles in your driveway, they just wake up

And start crawling to the river without thinking at all

Now I live with the questions, and I think too much

Sometimes in my sleep, when I wake up, it feels like I took a punch

In a dream, our house is falling, I'm across the road, calling

Begging you to show your hand, it flickers on and off again

Look what you done, hey, you proved me wrong

I get older, and you stay young

My, my, look what you done, hey, you proved me wrong

I get older, and you stay young

Godspeed to the cool night

And the silver moonlight

Every crack in a heart's got a name on it

Godspeed to the cool night

And the silver moonlight

Every crack in a heart's got a name on it

Got your name on it

Look what you done, hey, you proved me wrong

I get older, and you stay young

My, my, look what you done, hey, you proved me wrong

I get older, and you stay young

In a dream, our house is falling

I get older, and you stay young

I'm across the road and calling

Ah, you stay young

In a dream, our house is falling

I get older, and you stay young

I'm across the road and calling

Ah, you stay young

In a dream, our house is falling

I get older, and you stay young

I'm across the road and calling
