about

a quick demo for new years eve. this song is dedicated to anyone who is thinking about turning 30.

lyrics

growing older takes a lifetime to do
a little practice every day

sometimes i wonder
‘bout the memories i’ll loose
and if it flies by like they say


well i hope that my body
will
break
before my mind

and i hope that the wanting
takes it’s time


my eyes are wide enough
to see my 70s
and referee my wanting brain

to spend the holidays with
records i released
or would a family take their place

i hope my singing
and
a family
can harmonize

and i hope the wanting
takes it’s time
after all the songs i’ve sung with levity
there’s a heaviness that stays

when you ask for one that sings of certainty
i just never know what to play

girl are you hanging
by a thread
that extends
from my non-dominant hand

i guess i hope more than i plan


but i hope my body
will
break
before my mind

so even if talking
can’t
take place
i’ll blink my eyes

the long and the short ones
to say the phrase
you’ve heard a million times

girl you’ve been my wanting
for all my life


growing older takes a lifetime with you
i plan to give it every day
