Lilac eyes release me from the sting of the queen bee
Help me to forget about the lions chasing me
If a man among us has the notion that he's free

I entreat you to the challenge, stand on up and let's see
You get old, old
Old, I never wanna get old


Smiling and sun baked, I get jealous of myself
Like Shady Esperanto and the Young Hearts carousel

Hardest part has always been to resurrect my soul
Lightning in my youth and the newest way
Just got old, old

It got old
I never wanna get old


And you try, and you try
And you try and you try
And you try and you try again


But you can't try enough
But you keep fighting

You keep on fighting me
You keep on fighting
Don't you know you already won?


It's summer in the city
We were hanging on the lawn

Talking all the time about
Where the time had gone
It's not the way I thought it be

It's not what I was told
I got a young heart and I don't
wanna get..

old, I never wanna get old
You get old, I never wanna get old
I never wanna get old

I never wanna get old
I'm never gonna get old
I'm never gonna get old


And you try and you try
And you try and you try

And you try and you try
And you try and you try again
But you can't try enough
