This Young

(album: Moonriser - 2022)

You can take a picture
A little out of focus
Don't try to change anything
It's just a little moment

I'm not wasting my here and now wishing that things would be different than now
There's no returning, there's no turning back and I'm old enough to know now

I'm never gonna be this young
I'm never gonna be this green again
Times gonna do what time does
It's gonna change everything and then
I'll be looking back laughing
And all the beautiful patterns
Coming of age
Letting each day
Go as it comes
I'm never gonna be this young

Do something crazy
Don't overthink it
Fall too hard and get back up
Just do it like you mean it

I'm not wasting my here and now wishing that things would be different than now
There's no returning, there's no turning back and I'm old enough to know now

I'm never gonna be this young
I'm never gonna be this green again
Times gonna do what time does
It's gonna change everything and then
I'll be looking back laughing
And all the beautiful patterns
Coming of age
Letting each day
Go as it comes
I'm never gonna be this young, no
I'm never gonna be, never gonna be this you, no

I'm never gonna be this young
I'm never gonna be this green again
Times gonna do what time does
It's gonna change everything and then
I'll be looking back laughing
And all the beautiful patterns
Coming of age
Letting each day
Go as it comes
I'm never gonna be this young, no
I'm never gonna be, never gonna be this young, no

Oh, I'm never gonna be
This young, this young
