Middle Age Lullaby lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feels like everyone I know
That's around my age
Finds themselves
In a funny stage

[Verse 2]
In the middle of the night
They lie awake in their beds
But instead of counting blessings
They're counting fears and regrets

[Pre-Chorus]
What I'm trying to say here
To put you at ease
Is that we all
Could sure use some peace

[Chorus]
I wish you quiet
I wish you hope
I wish you miles away from everything that scares you so
I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it's time
For a middle age lullaby
[Verse 3]
These are the unkind years
Of losing so many
Of questioning dreams
If we still have any

[Verse 4]
Too old to be young
Much too young to be old
Drifting towards an horizon
So sure and so cold

[Pre-Chorus]
What I'm trying to say here
To put you at ease
Is each and every one of us
Could sure use some peace

[Chorus]
I wish you quiet
I wish you hope
I wish you miles away from everything that scares you so
I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it's time
For a middle age lullaby
[Bridge]
Here's a song for all of us
Who could sure
Sure use some peace

[Chorus]
I wish you quiet
I wish you hope
I wish you miles away from everything that scares you so
I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it's time
For a middle age lullaby

[Outro]
Yeah I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it's time
For a middle age lullaby
