Older

I've got a balcony in my new apartment

I thought you'd like to know

I've got a cat that sleeps in between my feet at night

And a grip that I'm letting go

I've got a pretty long fuse

I've got some pretty tattoos

I get a lot of good news

And it all belongs to you too

You bore a hole inside a life that didn't compromise and

I now call that a memory

Staring straight through what seemed an endless blue

You were thinking of me

You drew a pretty short straw

You made a lot of tough calls

I'm always thinking of you

♪

I can't ever make it up to you

But I can always make a space for you

Why don't you lay here

Head on my shoulder

You're the only reason I could ever get older

♪

I don't know how you survived it

I don't think I'd have the strength now

But I was there

I am there all the time

And time is a slippery disc

And memory is all that's mine

♪

I can't ever make it up to you

But I can always make a space for you

Why don't you lay here

Head on my shoulder

You're the only reason I could ever get older
