| I fell in love at seventeen
|
| Had to make a choice, either her or my dreams
|
| And I felt her love on the road, but that was a long time ago
|
| I fell for the wrong girl, the type to start a fire
|
| And leave you there to burn
|
| And I found a way to stay alive
|
| But somethin' in me that day died
|
| How does anyone make it out better?
|
| Someone tell me the words I should say
|
| How does anyone keep it forever?
|
| I barly made it through yesterday
|
| I wish I could lov like I used to love
|
| I wish I could love like when I was young
|
| It’s gettin' easier to say goodbye
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| I wish I didn’t give all of me away
|
| I’d take back the things that I wish I didn’t say
|
| It’s gettin' harder as the days go by
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| And I don’t know what I gotta change
|
| No matter what I do, it always ends the same
|
| And I’m not givin' up yet
|
| But I don’t got a whole lot left
|
| How does anyone make it out better?
|
| Someone tell me the words I should say
|
| How does anyone keep it forever?
|
| I barely made it through yesterday
|
| I wish I could love like I used to love
|
| I wish I could love like when I was young
|
| It’s gettin' easier to say goodbye
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| I wish I didn’t give all of me away
|
| I’d take back the things that I wish I didn’t say
|
| It’s gettin' harder as the days go by
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry
|
| Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry
|
| I wish I could love like I used to love
|
| I wish I could love like when I was young
|
| It’s gettin' easier to say goodbye
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| I wish I didn’t give all of me away
|
| I’d take back the things that I wish I didn’t say
|
| It’s gettin' harder as the days go by
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| The older I get, the less that I cry, the less that I feel, I’m not gonna cry
|
| (Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry)
|
| The older I get, the less that I cry, the less that I feel, I’m not gonna cry
|
| (Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry)
|
| I wish I could love like I used to love
|
| I wish I could love like when I was young
|
| It’s gettin' easier to say goodbye
|
| The older you get, the less you cry
|
| I wish I didn’t give all of me away |
