Hope is hard to find, when you don't know what you're looking for
And you're constantly behind, thinking there must be something more
And everything is changing, but you still feel the same

And don't know what you're doing with your life, or so it seems
You're full of suppressed feelings as you're bursting at the seems
And everything is changing, but you still feel the same

And before you know, you're getting old and losing touch

But life keeps marching on and on, and you're hung up on things you haven't done

And all now you have are regrets, and you're heavy with emotional debts
To the ones you love
And before you know, you're getting old and losing touch


The things that mean the most, and your life is full of ghosts
And you're weathering a loss in your heart, and your body's falling apart

Though we're singing tonight, as we celebrate this night
Celebrate this night, celebrate this night
And before you know, you're getting old and you're losing touch with other things

That mean the most and with a lump in your throat, you cry
That you've lived your life, well and honestly
And with an open heart, give yourself to history.
