They say that youth is wasted on the young,
Still, it's good that you're not jaded and I'm glad you're having fun.
Your long year ran right by here,
Just another short day to me,
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?
And when time turns the table you'll be me,
Wearing all the tags and labels of an ancient history.
Your long year ran right by here,
Just another short day to me,
So how have you been my immortal friend?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?
"And oh my, how time flies," say the eyes of the dusty old men,
Oh my, the days rush by,
You laugh it off,
The years get lost 'til, oh my, you're one of them.
Your long year.
Your long year ran right by here,
Just another short day to me,
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?
Did you love?
Were you kind?
Giving thanks for the time in your long year.
Did you dare to have faith in goodness and grace in your long year?
So how have you been my immortal friend?
Did you solve all life's mysteries?
'Cause your long year ran right by here,
Just another short day to me,
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?
In your long year,
In your long year,
In your long year,
(fade)
