To Be Old, Yet Feel Young
The music of a carousal plays in my heart
Youth, how wonderous, with no stress of this evil world
Peter Pan, immortality, to be a kid forever,
But with that comes no pleasure - apart from the Pirate's treasure
"I don't want to grow up," you hear a lot of people say
They don't take anything serious, they want to play
An old man you see sitting on an old wooden bench,
A smile on his face, his eyes lit up with happiness - to be a kid at heart is the true happiness
Old and young, at the same time,
is better than being less happy
The weight of the world is heavy, heavier than a chevy,
Think of good times, of a love that made you blind, and all the toys you've gotten at Christmastime
You can be young, yet feel old
Be old, yet feel young
Live everyday like Peter Pan, so happy, till your time on this earth is done.
