Jake Costello Lyrics

i get that feeling in my neck
everytime my three year old brother watches shrek
and he'll watch it over and over and over
and i can see he's gettin older
i used to think... hey man, i was a kid

my mom used to tape sesame street
and you know i'd watch that tape one hundred times a week
and now i can see i'm getting older
and i feel i'm getting slower
now i wish i was a kid

you're watching me, it's exactly what you said

now i think about my family
and all the friends i have, i've kept them around me
now everybody's grown up
and nobody ever shows up
its getting cold and hearts are losing heat

now we're old, now we're cold
and everybody's grown up
now we're old, now we're cold
and nobody ever shows up
now we're old, now we're cold
the winter wind is killing me
now we're old, now we're cold
its been too long since stars have burned my eyes

now i want you all to remember
those cold nights in november
when skies were clear
and we could see the stars
and i thank this band for keepin me alive
