The Older I Get

The older I get

The more I think

You only get a minute

Better live while you're in it

'Cause it's gone in a blink

And the older I get

The truer it is

It's the people you love

Not the money and stuff

That makes you rich

And if they found a fountain of youth

I wouldn't drink a drop

Well, that's the truth

Funny how it feels I'm just getting to

My best years yet

The older I get

The fewer friends I have

But you don't need a lot

When the ones that you've got

Have always got your back

And the older I get

The better I am

At knowing when to give

And when just not to give a damn

And if they found a fountain of youth

I wouldn't drink a drop

Well, that's the truth

Funny how it feels I'm just getting to

My best years yet

The older I get

And I don't mind all the lines

From all the times

I've laughed and cried

Souvenirs and little signs

Of the life I've lived

The older I get

The longer I pray

I don't know why

I guess that I've got more to say

And the older I get

The more thankful I feel

For the life I've lived

And all the life I'm living still
