Well, I finally laid my youth to rest
Put away my pride and childish whims
I have travelled far to get to this place
Earned the grays in my hair
And the lines on my face
Here's my simple truth
I'm a little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
ย
I believe true love is a sacrifice
And faith is more than words
Forgiveness leaves no room for hate
And the heart takes time to change
Here's my simple truth
I'm a little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Oh, you know, you know
I thought I had it all figured out
Well, that's what a prideful fool believes, oh yeah
It took many, many times of falling from grace
To, to finally see
Oh, to finally see, oh-oh-oh
ย
Well, I finally laid my youth to rest
Put away my pride and childish whim
I have traveled far to get to this place
Earned the grays in my hair
And the lines on my face
Here's my simple truth
I'm a little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
Little bit older, little bit wiser
Little bit closer to the grave
