youth

I went down to the lake again

Where we'd laugh,and we'd cry

And we'd swear we'll never die

But the city lights have changed

And memories fade

I guess I was wrong,'cause it all goes away

Are things really better now

'Cause you sure seem to think so

Living step by step

And moving oh so slow

One breath at a time

That's all there is to do

I'm afraid my fears

Have all come true

I hope you still remember me

The way that I was

The way we'd talk the night away

Staying up just because

Time's a funny thing

'Cause so much falls apart

Some of us grow up

And some stay at the start

Are things really better now

'Cause you sure seem to think so

Living step by step

And moving oh so slow

One breath at a time

That's all there is to do

Now I'm afraid my fears

Have all come true
