Getting Old Lyrics

When we were younger
time was under
careful lock and key
Now it's open,
tipped and pourin'
out all over me
Oh! what a shame that our days,
you explained
I thought you had meant they were long
Not 'till the night
when I turned 25,
I saw that I had it all wrong
I was gettin' tired of lettin' all my hours pass
Hopin' someday, somehow, somewhay everything would last
Oh, what a shame
when I look at your frame
I know someday it will be dust
Not that I thought
it's that close 'cause it's not
but I guess it's just creepin' up
Oh and it's not that bad,
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]

it's all this time we've had
Things that could be,
became mystery,
we'll never know instead
Oh, we're not too far gone,
it hasn't been that long
Oh and our empty tea cup,
is getting filled up
So we'll never have to dread
Getting old
Oh oh ohh, oh but it's not that bad,
it's all this time we've had
The things that could be,
became mystery,
we'll never know instead
Oh, we're not too far gone,
it hasn't been that long
Oh and our tea cup,
is getting filled up
So we'll never have to dread getting old
Getting old, getting old, getting old
