The New Shining

As We Grow Old

The New Shining


You say, time will show us a way
And we try to keep all the pieces in place

Oh do you recall, when time was on our side?
Just like a wall, where we used to hide

As we grow old, and time goes by
We just hang on to what we’ve got, afraid to let go

We fight, every day a little more
And this house we’ve been building
is starting to come crumbling down

So indecisive, trying to find
A better way, some peace of mind

As we grow old, and time goes by
We just hang on to what we’ve got, afraid to let go

This house grows cold, as time goes by

These walls are starting to wear down,
starting to wear down, each day a little more

Isn’t it time, we should let go?
Instead we carry on
Cos nobody likes to be wrong

Oh do you recall when time was on our side?
Do you recall when time was on our side?

As we grow old, and time goes by
We just hang on to what we’ve got, afraid to let go

So isn’t it time, we should let go?
