Your Long Year Songtext
von Daniel Amos

They say that youth is wasted on the young
Still it′s good that you're not jaded
And I′m glad you're having fun

Your long year ran right by here
Just another short day to me
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?

When time turns the table, you′ll be me
Wearing all the tags and labels of an ancient history

Your long year ran right by here
Just another short day to me
So how have you been, my immortal friend?
Did you solve all life′s mysteries in your long year?

"Oh my, how time flies," say the eyes of the dusty old men
"Oh my, the days rush by," you laugh it off
The years get lost 'til "Oh my, you′re one of them"
Your long year


Your long year ran right by here
Just another short day to me
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life's mysteries in your long year?

Did you love who you could?
Give thanks for the time in your long year
Did you dare to have faith in goodness and grace in your long year?
So how have you been, my immortal friend?

Did you solve all life′s mysteries?
'Cause your long year ran right by here
Just another short day to me
So how have you been in your beautiful skin?
Did you solve all life′s mysteries in your long year?

In your long year
In your long year
In your long year
In your long year
In your long year
In your long year
In your long year
