Christof van der Ven - For The Ages Lyrics

Been living for a long time
Since you were at half-term
I've changed so many suits till now

We both have different bodies
But some of yours is still me
Just a little older and a little bolder

I have looked down at a missed chance
More often as my dad has
He's a little safer and secure

I guess I lived a little larger
These jeans need a little alter
Doesn't just fall off the bones anymore

Both of us
Through our lives
And not anyone else

Seems like the days are growing older
And I'm a ghost to see things through
In one way or another
I am yearning something new

Been staring out this window
Manor Road still looking peaceful
But I can watch the paint dry
Somewhere in the countryside

And wonder if I'll ever see those evenings
Smouldering in red and yellow scenes
Cause I imagine I get
More defined when I think of you

Both of us
Through our lives
And not anyone else

Seems like the days are growing older
And I'm a ghost to see things through
In one way or another
I am yearning something new

All I'd like to know is
Where you'll take me
Now I'm getting grey
The day's turning longer
And I would like to stay awake

Seems like the days are growing older
And I'm a ghost to see things through
In one way or another
I am yearning something new

Seems like the days are growing older
And I'm a ghost to see things through
In one way or another
I am yearning something new
