Lyrics
Verse 1
Smell of coffee
In the air
I don’t drink it but
I like that it’s there
Outside, it’s sunny and cold
So grab your coat
Cuz’ we’re getting old
And time, doesn’t wait for
You or for me
No, time takes the patience out your pockets
And leaves only what you need
Verse 2
I stole the wisdom from the man who lives next door
He’s getting old so he doesn’t, need it anymore
He told me stories, from a boy to a man
And he talked about the years like they were
Sand through his hands
Chorus
Every day we’re getting older
I’ll start sipping coffee with you
Time is heavy on my shoulders
But I’ll stick to things I know that are true
Yes, I’ll stick to things, I know are true
Bridge
Time’s a rolling river
Will not stop to ease your shivers
Get to know its current
But don’t let it take your courage away
I’ve been the distance yes I’ve been without assistance
It’s a cold road but it sets your heart straight
Chorus
Every day we’re getting older
I’ll start sipping coffee with you
Time is heavy on my shoulders
But I’ll stick to things I know that are true
Yes, I’ll stick to things, I know are true
