I Didn'T Know The World Would Last This Long (Feat. Jefferson Hamer, Kristin Andreassen, Lauren Balthrop & Lawson White)

I didn't know the world would last this long
I didn't know I would ever sing this song
I didn't know how right, I could be wrong
And I didn't know the world would last this long 

I stumbled through a yellow field of dying grass
In front of me, some happy people quickly pass
Inhaling deep the air, while love goes flying high
While younger hands in distant windows wave goodbye

I forgot to live in oh so many ways
I thought I saw the numbers marked on all the days
I trembled at the warnings of the sad old men
Beware my son, the earth is coming to an end

But now a breeze of simple truth blows through my hair
Striking down the fences in my vacant stare
I'm stretching out my arms to fly, I know I'm free
I find I'm getting younger now, the more I see
