Lyrics

The lines on our faces
They tell all we've seen
The battles we've fought
And the years in between
A mirror won't lie
The truth's carved in our skin
But aging
My friend
Is where life must begin
The call of the crow
It sharpens the air
Our reckless youth fades
But wisdom lies there
Raise up your glass to the seasons we've known
Each chapter that's written
A treasure we've grown
We'll toast to our years
To the grey in our hair
To the paths we have walked
And the burdens laid bare
Maturity's fire burns soft
Yet so bright
It warms us in age through the long
Quiet night
The clocks turn relentless
No bargain to make
But sunrise looks sweeter with each breath we take
Remember the days when we cursed the slow time—
Now I know every hour is laden with rhyme
There's grace in the wear of a body grown old
A story that lives in the wrinkles we hold
So pour one strong drink
And smile through the pain
The vineyard of life yields its finest from strain
We'll toast to our years
To the grey in our hair
To the paths we have walked
And the burdens laid bare
Maturity's fire burns soft
Yet so bright
It warms us in age through the long
Quiet night
