Best Part Lyrics

I'm getting older it's a fact

What I once chased I just react

I close my eyes and, it seems another year has passed

I've wasted time I can't get back

Looking for things I thought I lacked

No way of knowing, what I was always holding

I'm losing touch with friends I've had

I'm piling up unfinished plans

The waves keep rolling, over my castle made of sand

Washing over me, I'm beginning to see

You get high, you get low

Seasons come and seasons go

Some too fast, some too slow

Whatever you water starts to grow

Don't lose hope, soon you'll know, the best part of growing old

My good intentions, fell behind

A picture I'd romanticized

As I lurch forward, not yet the man I thought I'd be

I went out looking for a sign

One written out in neon lights

I ran from silence, the place I'd surely find it

Now I can't keep up I can't keep time

I always feel one step behind

And when I notice the light it breaks me open

When it's over me, I'm beginning to see

You get high, you get low

Seasons come and seasons go

Some too fast, some too slow

Whatever you water starts to grow

Don't lose hope soon you'll know the best part of growing old

Oh Oh Oh Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh Oh Oh Oh

So many things that make me mad

Do I shake my fists or lend a hand

I may be broken, but my heart is open wide

I've yet to see a promised land

only this moment that we have

Now moving forward, without the certainty of the past

My eyes have seen beautiful things

A healing love, the pain that stings

And it reminds me that there is meaning in everything

I feel much younger than I am

But I see the lines upon my hands

And they remind me, of where I've been and all I have
