Lyrics

A day in the life as you’re getting older,
Memories play like whispers on your shoulder.
The boy I was, with dreams so wide,
Now walks this road with scars I don’t hide.

Youth was a fire, wild and uncontained,
Burning so bright, but it left its stains.
I chased the sun, I felt the rain,
Through all the glory and all the pain.

A day in the life as you’re getting older,
You’re young and bold now, wait till life gets hold of ya.
The highs, the lows, the sweet and the bitter,
Wouldn’t trade a step, wouldn’t change a sliver.
A day in the life as you’re getting older now.

I see the spark in the eyes of the young,
Their song unwritten, yet to be sung.
I smile for them, I feel their fight,
But I know the storms will come with the night.

Every joy has its shadow in time,
Every laugh echoes pain behind.
But in the cracks, the light breaks through,
What hurts you most becomes part of you.

A day in the life as you’re getting older,
You’re young and bold now, wait till life gets hold of ya.
The highs, the lows, the sweet and the bitter,
Wouldn’t trade a step, wouldn’t change a sliver.
A day in the life as you’re getting older now.

If I could tell them one thing, I’d say:
“Hold on tight when the winds betray.
The love you give, the loss you’ll feel,
It’s the weight that proves your heart is real.”

And as they go, I watch from here,
With pride and hope, but not without fear.
Life’s a gift wrapped in joy and strife,
A dance with shadows, the rhythm of life.

A day in the life as you’re getting older,
You’re young and bold now, wait till life gets hold of ya.
The highs, the lows, the sweet and the bitter,
Wouldn’t trade a step, wouldn’t change a sliver.
A day in the life as you’re getting older now.

I carry my scars, I wear my crown,
Every stumble was a step to higher ground.
So here’s to the young, the bold, the free,
May their journey shape them, as it did me.
