Well as crazy as it is to say
I'm turning 23 today
In a little town walking round and round the streets like it's LA
And there ain't no familiar faces
This ain't the big rock Candy Mountain
No Cigarette Trees, or Lemonade Springs today
Well the water just keeps rushing and the streams are overflown
While the tear drops on the window sill keep the flowers grown
So I keep on movin' forward, cause to freeze is to die
While a million expectations bottle up inside my head around my eyes
So I'll keep playing in the sand like I am three
Without a worry on my mind
And I'll keep singing like the Blue Bird in the trees
Cause 23 is just too young to die
Well as crazy as it is to say when the eagle catch their prey
Sometimes they take it from some other birds they fight and fly away
And there really ain't much difference, from the Eagle and the Man
We take what we want, when we want it, when we can't, we shake our heads, I don't understand.
So I'll keep playing in the sand like I am three
Without a worry on my mind
And I'll keep singing like the Blue Bird in the trees
Cause 23 is just too young to die
So I'll keep playing in the sand like I am three
Without a worry on my mind
And I'll keep singing like the Blue Bird in the trees
Cause 23 is just too young to die
