what about these lyrics from two awesome australian artists!
These Days by Powderfinger

It’s coming round again
The slowly creeping hand
Of time and its command
Soon enough it comes
and settles in its place
Its shadow in my face
Puts pressure in my day

This life well it’s slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned

It’s coming round again
The slowly creeping hand
Of time and its demands
It settles in its place
Its shadow in my face
Undignified and lame

This life well it’s slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
Control well it’s slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned

Soon enough it comes
Soon enough it comes
To tie us down

OR This Old Love by Lior

Yes, yeah we’re moving on,
Looking for direction,
Mmmm, we’ve covered much ground.
Thinking back to innocence,
I can no longer connect,
I don’t have a heart left to throw around.

Ooh, and time moves on like a train,
That disappears into the night sky.
Yeah, I still get a sad feeling inside,
To see the red tail lights wave goodbye.

But we’ll grow together,
We’ll grow old together,
And this love will never,
This old love will never die.

Well, money slips into your hands,
And then slips out like it was sand,
And there are shoes that you can never seem to fill.
I’ve chased so much and lost my way
Maybe a face for everyday,
That has so casually slipped me by.

Ooh, and time moves on like a train,
That disappears into the night sky.
Yeah, I still get this sad feeling inside,
To see the red tail lights wave goodbye.

But we’ll grow together,
We’ll grow old together,
And this love will never,
This old love will never die.

Morning comes,
Sometimes with a smile,
Sometimes with a frown.
Yeah, so i never want to worry,
If you gonna stay around.

So let’s grow together,
We’ll grow old together,
And this love will never,
This old love will never die.

Yes, yes we’re movin’ on,
Movin’ right along…

I love both of these songs. Always have to blink back the tears. This Old Love was the song for our slideshow in my graduating year.. and These Days was played at my friend’s funeral. Rest In Peace Duckjon…….
