3 Years Older lyrics

[Verse 1: Steven Wilson]
You cross the schoolyard with your head held down
And walk the streets under the breaking cloud
With a hundred futures cascading out
It’s complicated

[Verse 2: Steven Wilson, Nick Beggs & both]
You think of love as just a memory
A fog that smothers you, it's hard to breathe
But when you're on your own, that’s when you're free
You're three years older and you’ll always be now

[Chorus 1: Steven Wilson]
I can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I’ll ever show

[Verse 3: Steven Wilson]
There was a time when someone seemed to care
A tourist in your bed, you left him there
And found a simple life with no one to share
It’s not complicated

[Verse 4: Steven Wilson, Nick Beggs & both]
You make a list of all your big regrets
And share with people that you've never met
You slowly move towards the medicine chest
You're three years older and you’ll always be now
[Chorus 2: Steven Wilson, Nick Beggs & both]
I can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I’ll ever show
You only have to say
And the world will slip away
From you

[Bridge: Steven Wilson & Nick Beggs]
Shame on you for getting older every day
This place is not for you so why do you still stay?
You're standing with the other f*ckers in the rain
Life is not some sinecure for you to claim
You have to pay

[Chorus 2: Steven Wilson & Nick Beggs]
I can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I’ll ever show
You only have to say
And the world will slip away
From you
