Got Old

*Music* I was twenty one I was thirty three I was just a child When I was seventeen I got old And every year it is a different number And every mirror is more like my father I got old And now I'm comfortable Within this world And it's all I've known I'm not ready to go *Music* My arm's around you, you feel like my mother Beneath the shoulder of my father Yeah, they were young once Yeah, in their own right They were like us I had a friend just like a child Let him stay young, young and wild Never got old, never got old He died so young Let the days move slow As everyone I know grows old Let them through, then go Out the back door And release the child in me The child in me The child in me The child Now there's nothing to do in this town There's nothing to do in this town anymore And no one is left around There's nothing to do in this town anymore I got old *music* When I was young Man, I was younger You should have seen me I was on fire
