These years just showed up uninvited unannounced
Left us who we are and knocked a few lights out
Sit down, grow up you’ve got so much to appreciate
Your edges might feel rough now
but they’ll smooth out more everyday
They’ll cut you like a razor from this paper life
You’ll reach out your arms
and youíll find hands at either side
Stretched out, Yeah at first I thought I’d try
But I fell in line
I fell in line
Listen, work hard it’s not as bad as it seems
A tired body gives a tired mind no time for dreams
Worry, don’t worry it’s all gonna work out fine
Even stone steps wear with the passage of time
They’ll cut you like a razor from this paper life
You’ll reach out your arms
and youíll find hands at either side
Stretched out, Yeah at first I thought I’d try
But I fell in line
I fell in line
