All this commotion is contagious
Mind if I say it is outrageous
Do you happen to see all the choices you've got ahead?
Don't mistake information or infatuation with the real deal
Takes a lifetime to grow, takes your whole world to live real love
Listen up, growing old was never easy once I was told
But wrinkles and white hair are just ways to show you've been around
Long enough to breathe, long enough to cry
Long enough to see what the fuss is all about
Soon enough you'll see, soon enough you'll miss
All those good old times
Crying for help will take you nowhere
This world belongs to those who act on
Throwing punches at shadows won't make you win any battles
Take your time to prepare for tomorrow's incoming arrows
Opportunities don't come with refills unless you really do
Listen up, growing old was never easy once I was told
But wrinkles and white hair are just ways to show you've been around
Long enough to breathe, long enough to cry
Long enough to see what the fuss is all about
Soon enough you'll see, soon enough you'll miss
All those good old times
