Grow a Day Older

See the sunrise

Know it's time for us,

to pack up all the past,

and find what truly lasts

If everything has been written down, so why worry, we say

It's you and me with a little left of sanity

If life is ever changing, so why worry, we say

It's still you and I with silly smile as we wave goodbye

And how will it be?

Sometimes we just can't see

A neighbour, a lover, a joker, or a friend you can count on forever?

How happy, how tragic, how sorry?

The suns's still up and life remains a mystery

So would it be nice to sit back in silence?

Despite all the wisdom and the fantasies

Having you close to my heart as I say a little grace

I'm thankful for this moment cause I know that you

Grow a day older and see

how this sentimental fool can be

When she tries to write a birthday song

when she thinks so hard to make your day

when she's getting lost in all her thoughts

when she waits whole day to say...

"I'm thankful for this moment cause I know that I

grow a day older and see how this sentimental fool can be,

When he ache his arms to hold me tight,

when he picks up lines to make me laugh,

when he's getting lost in all his calls,

when we can't wait to say: '..I love you' "

If everything has been written down, so why worry, we say

It's you and me with a little left of sanity
