Older Now by James Humphrys

lyrics

Remember all the times
When we wished we could be older
We took two steps ahead
With a look over the shoulder

And now the years have past
And I wish I hadn’t told ya

That we’re older now, we’re older

Leading with a smile
As our skin it slowly changes
Did we learn from mistakes
And awkward exchanges

We craved a freedom that would come
Our head between the pages
But we’re older now, we’re older

And I wanna hear you say
Who wouldn’t want that anyway

And I wanna hear you say
Who wouldn’t want that anyway

But that don’t mean we can’t try
Don’t wish your days away there’s time
To get it all right
That don’t mean we can’t try

Two steps back now I’m feeling great
Cinnamon swirl on a breakfast plate
But that don’t mean we can’t try

Come on

Act a kinda tough before the feelings they taking over
Know you’re in the wrong
Before you know it, it’s October

Counting sheep at night after long nights on the sofa
But we’re older now, we’re older

But that don’t mean we can’t try
Don’t wish your days away there’s time
To get it all right
That don’t mean we can’t try

Two steps back and I’m feeling great
Cinema swirl on a breakfast plate
But that don’t mean we can’t try

That don’t mean we can’t try
Don’t waste your days away there’s time
To get it all right
That don’t mean we can’t try

Two steps back now I’m feeling great
Cinema swirl on a breakfast plate
But that don’t mean we can’t try

I don’t have the patience now
So can I leave it here
Before I go
Oh, you speak highly of those who try me
So can I leave it here
Cause I don’t know

And I wanna hear you say
Who wouldn’t want that anyway

And I wanna hear you say
Who wouldn’t want that anyway

Anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway

And I wanna hear you say
Who wouldn’t want that anyway

And I wanna hear you say

Hear you say, hear you say, hear you say, hear you say, hear you say
