As I approach the prime of my life,
I find I have the time of my life
Learning to enjoy at my leisure
All the simple pleasures,
And so I happily concede
This is all I ask,
This is all I need.
Beautiful girls, walk a little slower
When you walk by me;
Lingering sunsets,
Stay a little longer with the lonely sea.
Children everywhere, when you shoot at bad men,
Shoot at me
Take me to that strange, enchanted land
Grown-ups seldom understand.
Wandering rainbows, leave a bit of color
For my heart to own;
Stars in the sky, make my wish come true
Before the night has flown,
And let the music play as long as there's a song to sing,
And I will stay younger than Spring.
