I’ll Sleep When I’m Older

The taste of a cigarette in Paris in spring Conversation with elders and the wisdom they bring Sunrise in Georgia as holy choirs sing The view from an aeroplane at twelve thousand feet Meet God on a mountaintop along with the stars Find love somewhere, anywhere, fall deep from the start Misplace my mind and follow my heart See the cosmos unfolding and know I'm a part [Chorus] I'll sleep when I'm older When the world's got you weathered I'll finally find my way home I'll sleep when I'm older Sleep when I'm older [Verse 2] I'll be a firework, not a flickering flame Treat life all around me like a one-player game I'll go to the party and forget all the names Should it climb back to haunt me, it ends all the same [Chorus] I'll sleep when I'm older When the world's got you weathered I'll finally find my way home I'll sleep when I'm older (Older) [Instrumental Break] [Outro] I'll sleep when I'm older I'll sleep when I'm older I'll sleep when I'm older Sleep when I'm older
