Song of the Violin — текст песни (James Otto)

The last fifty years
Have seen laughter and tears
And your hair slowly fade to gray
Your children are grown now
And it`s hard to believe
How the years have just all slipped away

(Chorus:)
But in time you`ve gained a wisdom
That seems to elude the young
And each line that now marks your face
Tells the stories of all that you`ve done
So fear not the passing of days
`Cause like the song of the violin
You only grow sweeter with age

As time`s pages turn
You lived and you learned
What truly mattered most
Is family and friends
And in the end finding peace
In the path that you chose

(Chorus:)
`Cause in time you`ve gained a wisdom
That seems to elude the young
And each line that now marks your face
Tells the stories of all that you`ve done
So fear not the passing of the days
`Cause like the song of the violin
You only grow sweeter with age

Ooh, in time you`ve gained a wisdom
That seems to elude the young
And each line that now marks your face
Tells the stories of all that you`ve done
So fear not the passing of the days
`Cause like the song of the violin
You only grow sweeter with age
`Cause like the song of the violin
You only grow sweeter with age

The last fifty years
Have seen laughter and tears
And your hair slowly fade to gray
