Young & Poor Lyrics

Long before age took over our brains, we all lied on the floor

Long before time took over our minds, we all sang just a little more

So raise your glass, and then tip your hat, cause we are next in line

Did we forget all our past regrets? Will they come back tonight

The old man's eyes never seem to dry, looking out from his front porch

So make it last, can't live in the past, cause we all die young and poor

Remember the days, how I wished they'd stay, good friends all surround

Time as it stands was right in our hands, love was all around

Life didn't go the way I thought it'd go, I had a plan for years

Days are so short, all I want is more, I'm growing old with fear

The old man's eyes never seem to dry, looking out from his front porch

So make it last, can't live in the past, cause we all die young and poor

Don't you know that we all die young and poor

Don't you know that we all have to go

But no time to cry, everybody dies, rid your eye of that tear

I live for today, lift my head and say, I had my fun while I was here
