Story behind the song
The second of two songs comparing today's music to the music of the 60's and 70's. Sort of a continuation from "The New Keepers".
A more personal perspective about getting older, trying to keep up with today's music scene, and still loving the songs we grew up with.
And feeling out of place at rock concerts, with an ever growing younger crowd.
Lyrics
When you’re young you don’t worry about things
Living life as it comes
A little older now and you start to think
About all the things you haven’t done
Well my friend it’s been a long ride
When the road isn’t always so smooth
The fears you get are now harder to hide
When you come face to face with the truth
The years move faster than ever before
Time is your master but you ask for some more
The songs don’t hunger like years ago
The crowds are younger, it’s a whole new show
Playing for the song, that makes you feel young again
Playing for the song, like a long, long lost friend
It’s time for fun, let your hair down
No time for heavy thoughts
The rhymes begin with a playful sound
You can be the carefree sort
Rock and rolls and roll your rocks
Whatever it takes to get it done
Pound the keys and blow your socks off
We’re gonna have some fun
The years move faster than ever before
Time is your master but you ask for some more
The songs don’t hunger like years ago
The crowds are younger, it’s a whole new show
Playing for the song, that makes you feel young again
Playing for the song, like a long, long lost friend
Playing for the song, no strings attached except for guitars
Playing for the song, let’s take a trip to the moon and Mars
