You say, we're getting older you say, remember when? when we were younger and a mother hungered for a simple life.... i remember years ago when you came into my room i'd scream and then i'd laugh at you, like a teenage boy will do not a brother then or friend to say, "you're too beautiful to count the ways" you were lovely with your broken smile i was blinded by your light seventeen and almost grown i found a place to call my own you came into my door that night so alive alive alive we drank the wine that night to take the dare it hit you hard i held your hair you were lovely with your broken smile i began to see the light yeah, when you're feeling a little low yeah, when you're cryin' out for more yeah, i'll be running never far from where you are Songtexte twenty four he broke your heart they flew me home to see your dark through a canyon deep in desert land we would drive and drive and drive you said "let's melt into the ground today stare at the clouds and laugh away" you were lovely with your broken smile i was proud to see your light i'm thinking 50 years from now when all is said and done with babies grown and lovers gone to time and time and time we'll recall the days when mom would say "you're too beautiful to count the ways" you'll be lovely with your broken smile when you rise into the light yeah, when you're feeling a little low yeah, when you're cryin' out for more yeah, i'll be running never far from where you are they'll say, "we're gettin' older" they'll say, "remember when?.... when they were younger and a mother hungered for a simple life...a simple life...."
