Lyrics The Older I Get - Susan McCann

The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute
Better live while you're in it
'Cause it's gone in a blink

And the older I get
The truer it is
It's the people you love
Not the money and stuff
That makes you rich

And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet

The older I get
Fewer friends I have
But you don't need a lot
When the ones that you got
Have always got your back

And the older I get
The better I am
At knowing when to give
And when just not give a damn

If they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I get

And I don't mind all the lines
From all the times I've laughed and cried
Souvenirs and the little signs of the life I've lived

The older I get
The longer I pray
I don't know why
I guess that I
Got more to say

And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I've had
And all the life I'm living still
