Been thinking about this one for a little while, but was inspired to put some finishing touches on it.
Before We're Too Old
Water droplets on the edge of a can.
Butterscotch kisses, turn on my jam.
I’ve got my worst pair of jeans and best set of shades,
lying in the sand sipping pink lemonade.
Ashes to splashes, dust to dawn,
We're red-dirt living on old, beach songs.
The campfire's burning and the water's still cold,
but we're gonna live young, before we're too old.
My heart's beating faster like a bird in breeze,
the longer she's laughing and staring at me.
That girl's got my attention like the heat of day
my constant affection, like the sting of a ray.
Ashes to splashes, dust to dawn,
We're red-dirt living on coastal songs.
The campfire's burning and the water's still cold,
but we're gonna live young, before we're too old.
Someday I'll save this moment somewhere in my mind,
but today I'll live knowing you can only spend time.
Ashes to splashes, dust to dawn,
red-dirt living on coastal songs.
The campfire's burning and the water's still cold,
but we're gonna live young, before we're too old.
