The Years Lyrics by Jack and the Weatherman

Something Positive

2014

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Hello, how are you?
I’m getting older and I need someone to talk to
Don’t you think it’s strange
That we get older every day?
I don’t even know what I’m doing here
And the clock just ticks away
Yes I’m afraid, That I won’t find my way
Don’t want to end up an old man who wishes he’d done differently
No way, oh tell me it’s not to late
Surely there is someone is this world who might relate to me
[Chorus]
Another year has passed
And there is hair growing on my chest
Things are moving so fast, everybody is getting older
Another year has passed
All those memories locked inside my head but it’s sad
Cause I’ll never see them again no
And maybe it takes , just a little bit more time, to realize that you’re living now
[Verse 2]
And my body
My body will change
But that’s okay
Cause women say
That men get beautiful with age
Well I pray
That I can keep up with society
Unlike all those old folks today
They don’t understand technology
But that’s okay
I’m not gonna be that way
Sitting in my own build house
Right next to the beautiful sea
I’ll be happy
Yes I’ll be happy as hell
A smiling old man with a couple of stories to tell
[Chorus]
Another year has passed
And there is hair growing on my chest
Things are moving so fast, everybody is getting older
Another year has passed
All those memories locked inside my head but it’s sad
Cause I’ll never see them again no
And maybe it takes , just a little bit more time, to realize that you’re living now
[Bridge]
So talking to you I kind of realized
That it’s not so bad getting old and wise
I guess that’s our main quality in life
Being able to die
And time
Oh time
Gives us the power and the drive to live our dreams right
Can you hear it tick?
Can you hear it tick?
Oh you better start having some fun
Better do it quick
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
I said a
Tick tack says the clock
I said a tick tack says the clock
[Chorus]
Another year has passed
And there is hair growing on my chest
Things are moving so fast, everybody is getting older
Another year has passed
All those memories locked inside my head but it’s sad
Cause I’ll never see them again no no
And maybe it takes , just a little bit more time, to realize that you’re living now
And maybe it takes , just a little bit more time, to realize that you’re living now
[Outro]
