On Growing Older Lyrics

[00:00.00]	作词 : Cousins
[00:08.09]	The scarecrow stood with its head held high admiring the view from the hill
[00:16.20]	The waterfall scattered its glistening jewels as the heron stood gracefully still
[00:23.24]	It seemed I looked without seeing, I failed to grasp what I saw
[00:30.55]	For all of Nature's beautiful gifts I blissfully chose to ignore.
[00:43.93]	As sandy beaches and soft swelling tides invite the inquisitive young
[00:51.52]	And caviar, oysters and p芒t茅 de foie invite the discerning tongue
[00:58.31]	So comes the desire to be lost awhile in the depths of the forest glade
[01:05.89]	Midst the cool deep greens where ancient oaks cast wondrous spells in their shade.
[01:18.38]	And if sometimes I feel in retrospect a regret for the waste of my youth
[01:25.95]	Then I pause to reflect that I still have time before growing long in the tooth
[01:33.19]	To achieve all the things that I should have achieved when idleness led me astray
[01:40.71]	And being aware of what I have missed, I'm extending my use of the day.
