lyrics

As we get older sounds immature
like we’re trying to deny who we are.
Between now and then a thousand once agains.

Hour by hour, day by day,
month by month, years and decades.
Not good or bad but all we ever had.

My love is getting colder.
My love just walked out the door.
My love is bored to tears.

Maybe we should start smoking again.
Plug the hard drugs with easy disdain.
Drink to excess, turn our neat lives back into mess.

When all’s said and done do you lie or confess?
When all’s said and done is there more or less?
When all’s said and done what is there left behind you?

When we were young sounds premature
When you think back we always were.
There’s no time like the present to reinvent the past
as old jokes trickle down to last laughs.
