Lyrics Younger Than Today - Ben Harper, The Innocent Criminals

Younger Than Today

You and I were looking over pictures yesterday
Sitting in disbelief at how time slips away
Both at a loss for words to say
You will never be younger than today
Foolishness protected us from the world outside
They could never come between us but we knew they’d try
We remember living as if they were away
To forever be younger than today
Never looked at anything you didn’t care to see
I was the one who wouldn’t let you leave
Even though it was clear you couldn’t stay
Had to try to be younger than today
Had to try to be younger than today
As we parted you reminded me of a lie
To remember when the stars danced just for you and I
May the shimmer of summer always light your way
And make you feel younger than today
