We're Getting Older Lyrics

It still was a good year
It still was great year
To be young, to kiss and then forget
It still was a good year
It still was great year
To stay up, watch the Sun, stay up late with you

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older

It still was a good year
It still was great year
I didn't disappoint as many
It still was a good year
It still was great year
We drove for hours without knowing where we were heading

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting old
Gettin' old
We are gettin' old
We are, we are, we are, we are
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
We are, we are, we are, we are, we are, we are
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old

This year is different
This year is different
Everyone is having babies on their own
I don't feel different
I don't feel different
I'm still a child, and I'm not ready to grow up

It still was a good year
It still was great year
To be young, to kiss and then forget
It still was a good year
It still was great year
To stay up, watch the Sun, stay up late with you

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older

It still was a good year
It still was great year
I didn't disappoint as many
It still was a good year
It still was great year
We drove for hours without knowing where we were heading

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older
'Nd we are getting older

'Cause we are getting older
'Nd we are getting old
Gettin' old
We are gettin' old
We are, we are, we are, we are
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
We are, we are, we are, we are, we are, we are
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old
Getting old, gettin' old

This year is different
This year is different
Everyone is having babies on their own
I don't feel different
I don't feel different
I'm still a child, and I'm not ready to grow up

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
