Hellogoodbye - Getting Old lyrics

rate me

When we were younger

time was under

careful lock and key

Now it's open,

tipped and pourin'

out all over me

Oh! what a shame that our days,

you explained

I thought you had meant they were long

Not 'till the night

when I turned 25,

I saw that I had it all wrong

I was gettin' tired of lettin' all my hours pass

Hopin' someday, somehow, somewhay everything would last

Oh, what a shame

when I look at your frame

I know someday it will be dust

Not that I thought

it's that close 'cause it's not

but I guess it's just creepin' up

Oh and it's not that bad,

it's all this time we've had

Things that could be,

became mystery,

we'll never know instead

Oh, we're not too far gone,

it hasn't been that long

Oh and our empty tea cup,

is getting filled up

So we'll never have to dread

Getting old

Oh oh ohh, oh but it's not that bad,

it's all this time we've had

The things that could be,

became mystery,

we'll never know instead

Oh, we're not too far gone,

it hasn't been that long

Oh and our tea cup,

is getting filled up

So we'll never have to dread getting old

Getting old, getting old, getting old
