Bon Jovi & Jon Bon Jovi - Just Older lyrics

rate me

Hey, man, it's been a while

Do you remember me?

When I hit these streets I was 17

A little wild, a little green

I've been up and down and in between

After all these years miles and memories

I'm still chasing dreams

But I ain't looking over my shoulder

Chorus:

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

It's just like me, it's broken in

It's not old -- just older

Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans

This skin I'm in it's alright with me

It's not old -- just older

It's good to see your face

You ain't no worse for wear

Breathing that Californian air

When we took on the world

We were young and brave

That secret that we'll take to the grave

Standing here shoulder to shoulder

Chorus:

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

It's just like me, it's broken in

It's not old -- just older

Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans

This skin I'm in it's alright with me

It's not old -- just older

I'm not old enough to sing the blues

But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes

You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff

But you can't win until you're not afraid to loose

Solo

When I look in the mirror

I don't hate what I see

There's a few more lines staring back at me

The night has grown a little bit colder

Hey man, I gotta run

Now you take care

If you see coach T. Tell him I've cut my hair

but I keep my feet

I still believe I'm just... Ha !

Chorus:

I like the bed I'm sleeping in

It's just like me, it's broken in

It's not old -- just older

Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans

This skin I'm in it's alright with me

It' s not old -- just older
