Late September, it's getting colder The seasons turning, and I can't sleep Virginia summer was sweeter, and a little longer But I am older now I am older now I mentioned in passing, I've been overreacting But after all of this lost time I'm still unpacking The boxes is my room, you dropped off in late June But I am older now I am older now When I was young you were invincible to me Now I can't look you in the eye when we speak I was just a kid and it was hard to believe That you are older now, I am older now This is taking its toll on me, cos at night when I fall asleep I wake to the same old sound of my own grinding teeth It ought to be over soon, been going on a year or two But I am older now, I am older now When I was young you were invincible to me Now I can't look you in the eye when we speak I was just a kid and it was hard to believe That you are older now, I am older now
