The Age Old Story

Lyrics by Cait Rosellini and Chris Klimecky

How young were you when you saw your first star?
It’s like angels called your name from afar
They aren’t just happy accidents awaiting your reply
How many times have you ignored that beautiful sky?

It’s the wind that steals your breath
It’s the lights that shine up high
It’s the age old story
Precious time will pass us by

Many years ago I never thought of such things
but then I looked through the lens and started to believe
I stared for hours but no one ever asked me why
I could read the pages written in the night

It’s the wind that steals your breath
It’s the lights that shine up high
It’s the age old story
Precious time will pass us by

Don’t falter now, you know how, how to watch and wish and just hold tight
Remember now, you know how, they’ll be waiting for you every single night

The sunrise breaks and the wonder fades
The glowing of the cycle fast invades
This humble pause won’t last for long
They’ll still remain way after we’re gone

It’s the wind that steals your breath
It’s the lights that shine up high
It’s the age old story
Precious time will pass us by

Don’t falter now, you know how, how to watch and wish and just hold tight
Remember now, you know how, they’ll be waiting for you every single night
Don’t falter now, you know how, how to watch and wish and just hold tight
Remember now, you know how, they’ll be waiting for you every single night

Every single night
Every single night
