A Little Older (Everybody’s Safe) Lyrics by Peter Breinholt

2018

And to think that she’s coming home today
\nAll a little wonder, the world’s a better place
\nAnd the good news is everyone’s ok
\nAll a little older and everybody’s safe
\n
\nAnd time has left a mark upon this place
\nLay it down, but don’t be late
\nYou’ve got to tend it like a garden
\nJust so you know
\n
\nThere’s a boy in a rock and roll band
\nHe’s going to cut his own path
\nThe only way he can
\n
\nUnlike the writer who never sees the sun
\nPoor an lonesome writer
\nAfraid of getting burned
\n
\nBut you have such a load upon your back
\nHold your ground they won’t come back
\nDays of wonder; days of folly
\nWe should have known
\n
\nWe’ll live in a house
\nThat no one has ever known
\nA gate in the back
\nA girl is running home
\nAnd late afternoon
\nThe light in the room
\nWill drift to the side
\nThe day’s gone by
\n
\nAnd the sky
\nWill play tricks upon your eyes
\nWhen you’re tired
\nLike on the days of year
\nWhen all the shadows disappear
\n
\nWe’ll live in a house
\nThat no one has ever known
\nA gate in the back
\nA girl is running home
\nAnd late afternoon
\nThe sun in the room
\nWill drift to the side
\nThe day’s gone by
\n
\nSo go live in a house
\nLet all those people stay
\nAnd give it a name
\nFrom some place far away
\nAnd time after time
\nThat look in her eyes
\nWill tell you you’re fine
\nThe day’s gone by\n\n
