Not a Young Man Anymore

from Focus Group by Gabriel Lynch

/

lyrics

I used to notice when my parents woke up early
To give the early hours a chance
We learned in school that nothing is impossible
And never thought to question if it was

I used to notice when the streets outside were empty
Just begging us to ride and play
You could depend on any kid to be your friend
Oh where is it that we became so lost

All my life led to this
Often gone, seldom missed
Colours fade, love grows blind
Brighter days, I’m yet to find
Oh but now I’m sure I’m not a young man anymore

Looking back it’s like there was always inspiration
And no idea would go to waste
I’d write, I’d sing, I never doubted anything
But now I hate the sound of my own voice

After all’s said and done
Time makes fools of everyone
Endlessly young hearts will stray
And gently steal our minds away

All my life led to this
Often gone, seldom missed
Colours fade, love grows blind
Brighter days, I’m yet to find
Oh but now I’m sure I’m not a young man anymore
