As Old As You're Young - Gentle Giant

Look at the mirror over there, what do you see?

Tell yourself a lie

Are you as old as you seem?

Feel something that you have to

Being open, an innocent, wise only when.

Age can mellow the haste

New hopes, ambitions undone — you’re only as old as you’re young

Out of your youth and you’ll find that the time goes

Slipping away where no-one knows

Soon enough Winter is changing to Spring

Always understand one life it goes

Never as old as you’re young and everything still yet to find

Dreams not realized

Thoughts rising, duties and vows continue, can’t wait for you

Now is the day, tomorrow comes without an end

Mark time follow the sun — you’re only as old as you’re young

Out of your youth and you’ll find that the time goes

Slipping away where no-one knows

Soon enough Winter is changing to Spring

Always understand one life it goes

So as you look around, look at the things you knew

Never seeking the past

Forget all the things you have done — you’re only as old as you’re young

Still open eyed and promises never quite complete

Working head in the air

The coming of age never comes — You’re only as old as you’re young
