As we grow older we discover and we see the truth
Especially the things we couldn't see during our youth
Life's full of challenges its one big test
It becomes crystal clear there's no need to attest
Birthdays become regular days
As we make our way through this unforeseeable maze
Christmas lists become shorter and soon rot
As we grow older the things we want most cant be bought
Days become shorter and life becomes colder
Because life is no game as we grow older
