You've walked a long road and you've worn it well You stitched yourself up when you fell Keep your memories in jars Carry secrets and scars beneath your shell You've seen some good days and some bad ones too You weave through fashion and trend You've seen the sun rise on an ocean blue You've seen it set for the dearest of friends
You found faith but you chose to doubt it You found love but you left without it Now you don't want to talk about it
You travelled down through foreign lands Touched mountain tops and golden sands Seen pyramids and temples made of stone Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf A treasured book of photographs In every single one you stand alone You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall As you watch the decades fall The letters that you wrote never made it home Your birthdays flew past like June With Christmas days in hotel rooms And New Year's eve with people you don't know
You built friendships but they sailed without you You never meant it and that's why they doubt you And they don't ever talk about you
You're older than you used to be The marrow weaves and tapestry Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand As if the answer is gonna fall out of the sky But the penny never dropped And no man has ever stopped time from flying by
