lyrics

Jane’s birthday

Optimists opt for light,
So which side you’re fighting for?
Restless, you are never lost
And you’re not even 24.
Everything was fine back then,
We all had more innocence
We even had more hope back then,
Was life better then?
And you’re not even 24.

So superstars are never worth fighting,
Fighting what you’re fighting for.
They suddenly come and suddenly go
So you’re not even 24.
And everything was fine back then,
We all had more innocence,
We even had more hope back then,
Was life better then?
And you’re not even 24.

I say: now, you might feel lonely,
Just don’t worry, a day is gone
I say: now, you might well feel lonely,
Just don’t worry, a day is gone
And when light flows in we are fourteen,
I say light flows in, and we are fourteen.

It’ll shine even more when we’ll be thirty-four,
It’ll shine even more when we’ll be thirty-four,
It’ll shine even more when we’ll be thirty-four,
Forty-four, fifty-four, sixty-four, seventy-four, eighty-four, ninety-four.
