Ben Platt – Older

Ben Platt – Older Lyrics

Artist: Ben Platt
Song: Older

I was walking down 57th street towards park
With the same old song in my same old heart
Making plans I’m gonna do when I get older
Passed a gray-haired man and I found his eyes

It’s like he knew my thoughts and he read my mind
Saying life is gonna find you when it’s supposed to
Felt my feet stop short and I turned my head
Tried to lean into every word he said

Then he said
When you are younger
You’ll wish you’re older
Then when you’re older

You’ll wish for time to turn around
Don’t let your wonder turn into closure
When you get older
When you get older

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Have I killed my thoughts right before their prime

Have I bit my tongue one too many times
Have I said it all the way I really meant to
If I wait ’til my tomorrow comes
Is the waiting all I’ve ever done

And will I get to
Get to know myself in the place I am
Get to fall in love with another man and understand
When you are younger

You’ll wish you’re older
Then when you’re older
You’ll wish for time to turn around
Don’t let your wonder turn into closure

When you get older
When you get older
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
When you are younger
When you are younger

You’ll wish you’re older
You’ll wish you’re older
When you get older
When you get older

You’ll wish for time to turn around
Don’t let your wonder
Don’t let your wonder
Turn into closure turn into closure

When you get older
When you get older
When you get older
Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
