Getting Old Is Not That Bad
*With age you learn to listen
And you're not so quick to judge
You see things in a different way
Then the days when you grew up
Age lets you understand things
Allows you to stay calm
Helps you to protect yourself
From things you know are wrong
Age gives a new perspective
Will allow for something new
Lets you learn from the past
And can change your points of view
With age there comes a wisdom
From experience that you have
Looking back at all it gives to you
Getting old is not that bad*
