It was easier
January 8, 2009
It was easier when
We were young
Making choices
About what to do
When we used to go out
Wherever we went
It was easier when
We were young
It’s harder now
Because we are older
It’s harder to make choices
It’s harder to make choices
Because we grew out of the young stage
That’s why it was easier when
We were younger
