Almost all of your friends are younger folks

Because your age is growing faster now.

Choose to be young at heart, forgive the jokes.

Decide to love your life and take a bow

Each time the day of birth comes round again.

Forget that fate has decided your path.

Go out and carve a new trail to begin

Having true joy and ignoring the math.

Is not that the way to live life anew?

Joining in the fun compatriots make,

Keeping faith with all that you know is true.

Let go, spin out, forget to use your brake.

Max out your savings while you dance your dance.

Never waste your time regretting the past,

Only be happy with your newest chance.

Perhaps you should remember it won't last,

Quickly gather the roses while you may,

Rolling in the grass while they roll their eyes

Seems to make for a much more happy day.

Take your shot, soak the sun before it dies

Until you have to rest your weary soul.

Vainly do you wish your life was longer,

Walking slower, once more you have your goal,

Xysti lined with blooms, fragrance much stronger,

Youthful dreams return you to your lost ones

Zealously you share your life's benisons.
