Songs: Young and old

by Jessica Abell

Created on: July 08, 2010

I remember what it’s like

To be young

I remember how easy it was

To love someone

As I get older I forget these things

Forget what it’s like to be young


But we all grow old

And we all break down

And to never be young again


I never thought I would

Be that man

Who looks at the young

And thinking “What fools!”

To be kissing and hugging

And holding hands

Just to break up

At the end of school


But we all grow old

And we all break down

And to never be young again


The young I admire

Their youth I desire

To experience it all again


Give it to me

The youth I was free

And not an old man again
