Birthday Song

The Honeycutters

I just got word today that the money’s gonna be OK
and the weather oughta hold out through the weekend
Fall is settling in, the days are getting short again
and the morning’s getting real nice for sleeping

Every time it gets colder I get another year older
I start looking for lines in the bathroom mirror
but when I lay down at night I swear I must have done something right
cause I’m still so damn glad to be here

I’ve been trying to love the questions, and keep on guessing
some days the answers just get farther
Everybody gets stuck in the middle some times everybody’s gonna hurt a little
we don’t got to go and make things harder

I know you worry...
but what’s your hurry? Baby,
we’re all gonna get there in the end
and if love is the seed, the fruit is gonna taste so sweet
and you’re gonna make this world a friend

Every time it gets colder I get another year older
I start looking for lines in the bathroom mirror
but when I lay down at night I swear I must have done something right
cause I’m still so damn glad to be here
