As Young As You'll Ever Be

(album: My Gospel - 2016)

Ain't the highest you'll ever climb
It's the farthest you'll ever see
You're as young as you'll ever be
You're as young as you'll ever be

Might be the ripest on the farm
Might be the brightest bulb in the barn
Well there's more seeds left to sow
Such little time to call your own
Such little time

My old man was wild as me
Tried to teach me better 'round twenty-three
Where were you when I was sixteen and all alone?
You were high as you'd ever flown

Well you fight those demons 'til the end
They'll come screaming against the wind
You fight those demons 'til the end
They'll come screaming again and again
Again and again

Ain't the highest you'll ever climb
But it's the farthest you'll ever see
You're as young as you'll ever be
You're as young as you'll ever be
You're as young as you'll ever be
