BEN HARPER LYRICS - Younger Than Today

"Younger Than Today"



You and I were looking at old pictures yesterday

Sitting in disbelief at how time slips away

Both at a loss for words to say, who knew we'd never be younger than today?



Foolishness protected us from the world outside

They could never come between us but we knew they'd try

We remembered living as if there were a way to forever be younger than today



Never looked at anything you didn't care to see

I was the one who wouldn't let you leave

Even though it was a clear you couldn't stay

Had to try to be younger than today

Had to try to be younger than today



As we parted, you reminded me I'm alive

To remember when the stars danced just for you and I

May the shimmer of the summer always light your way and make you feel younger than today
