Clearly Much Older (Gordon, Mumy, Henson-Conant)
It seems I’m growing up too fast
And it’s hard making moments last
What days lay before me I wish were my past
My eyes have learned to care
And my friends have taught me how to share
I’m clearly much older. It’s hard to prepare
But my friends they are still with me
Through our rises and falls
And I’m sure that I still love them
If I’m sure of anything at all
The years they roll like skipping stones
And it’s hard to face those stones alone
With no one to say “Oh my God, how they’ve grown”.
But my friends they are still with me
Through our rises and falls
And I’m sure that I still love them
If I’m sure of anything at all
My days are filled with songs of you
And I try to see them through
The hours I could spend in the life of a friend
You are still with me
Melody and Rhyme
And I give you all my empty hours
If I only had the time
It seems I’m growing up too fast
And it’s hard making moments last
What days lay before me
I wish were my past
