The Waysides - Act Your Age Lyrics

Sometimes I get really scary
But it's not close to the face I am wearing
Being so young
Not having much
Someday someone will come, for you

Please act your age
Before it gets too late
Have a love for every stage
It comes in waves

Like a hound from its cage
My life it slipped away
And my heart forgot to appreciate

All the love I had saved in my time between the days
When I nearly took my life away
I need more time
Give me more time
While my youth comes to fool the fools again

All along the way we went
We made the most of it all
It's all, over now

Be proud of the crown you wear
And let them stare at you

Please act your age
Before it gets too late
Have a love for every stage
It comes in waves

Like a hound from its cage
My life it slipped away
And my heart forgot to appreciate

All the love I had saved in my time between the days
When I nearly took my life away
I need more time
Give me more time
While my youth comes to fool the fools again
