SOUR GRAPES
(SOMETIMES LIFE SUCKS... SOMETIMES WE JUST THINK IT DOES)
I used to think that getting old was all in the mind
and I don't want that thought to be a thought I leave behind
but I can tell you that gravity is not always kind
and it's all in the body now, on that I am resigned
it's strange how time changes how getting old is defined
I still run as fast as I can
in my mind
I still giggle at silly things
in my mind
I still feel innocent and trust
in my mind
I try not to feel the body ache
in my mind
I used to think that getting old was all in the mind
and I don't want that thought to be a thought I leave behind
but I can tell you that gravity is not always kind
and it's all in the body now, on that I am resigned
it's strange how time changes how getting old is defined
I still flirt with all the beauty
I can find
I may be laughed at but not
in my mind
I still feel hunger for love
in my mind
and I'm still reborn each time I wake up
in my mind
I can't fly as high as I used to
my bones and bowels move slower today
I can't sing as high as I used to
I reach a little lower to play
but my dreams will not go away
what can I say
I used to think that getting old was all in the mind
and I don't want that thought to be a thought I leave behind
but I can tell you that gravity is not always kind
and it's all in the body now, on that I am resigned
it's strange how time changes how getting old is defined
now I know that staying young is all in the mind
