Pierre De Reeder - Young and Old lyrics

It's hard to be happy at the same time And it's not hard to end up with a closed mind When you spend your life just trying, trying, and trying As you make all your plans with an able body And a mind in between young and old Do you feel all that you love is just a favor of your dreams? And would you throw all the best things in life away Just keeping all of your troubles at bay? When you're just a stone's throw to let it go When you're somewhere between young and old Well, I've seen what it takes out of you When you take it all out on yourself Never sharing the weight Doing all the wrong things for all the right reasons But it's a fool who bets his life away On the strength of somebody else's claim You can watch it all go in just one throw When you're somewhere between young and old
