As we get older, time flies by
The years seem to pass in a blur
We look back on our youth with a sigh And wonder where all the time has occurred
But getting older isn’t all bad
It brings wisdom and experience, we’ve found
We’ve learned from our mistakes and the sad
And we wear our age with a crown
We may have wrinkles and graying hair
But we’ve earned every line on our face
We’ve loved and we’ve lost and we’ve cared
We’ve found joy in life’s simplest embrace
So let us embrace getting older
For it’s a journey we all must take
Let us look back on our lives with a shoulder
And move forward, no matter the ache
For age is just a number, they say
And it’s the memories that truly matter
So let us live each day, come what may
And embrace getting older, no matter the chatter
