Lyrics
0:21Folk always told me that my heart would grow
0:26The older the man yeah the stronger the stone
0:30Am I losing my mind
0:34Am I growing backwards with time
0:55Some say with age that a purpose comes clear
0:59I see the opposite happening here
1:04Are we losing the fight
1:08Are we growing backwards with time
1:29I was young and love was fun
1:32Now it's so serious
1:37Now all the fun has equal pain
1:41There's something wrong with this
1:46For all I know there's more I don't
1:49Oh the little I have learned
1:54For every year of knowledge gained
1:57Is a negative year I've earned
2:17Folk always told me that my heart would grow
2:21The older the man yeah the stronger the stone
2:25Am I losing my mind
Folk always told me that my heart would grow The older the man yeah the stronger the stone Am I losing my mind Am I growing backwards with time Some say with age that a purpose comes clear I see the opposite happening here Are we losing the fight Are we growing backwards with time I was young and love was fun Now it's so serious Now all the fun has equal pain There's something wrong with this For all I know there's more I don't Oh the little I have learned For every year of knowledge gained Is a negative year I've earned Folk always told me that my heart would grow The older the man yeah the stronger the stone Am I losing my mind
