It gets easier, as we get older
It gets easier to say "not today"
And it gets easier, as we get older
To say "go away and not today"

I don't have to do
One damn thing
That I don't want to do
Except for missing you
And that won't go away

It gets easier to say "some other time"
It gets easier to tell the world to wait
And it gets easier to watch the world fly by
And tell it, "I will catch up, but not today"

I don't have to do
One damn thing
That I don't want to do
Except for missing you
And that won't go away
Except for missing you
And that won't go away
