    The new religion. They should play this at children's assembly. Breaks my heart how true this song is. Beautiful, makes me want to cry and laugh. How fast life is. Bless you all, hope you don't waste your time. Thank you so much maccabees x

    So soon we, so soon we
    So soon we're too old to carry
    And we knew it, and we knew it
    And we knew we only had a little while
    In the middle, in the middle
    In the middle just keep ticking over
    Before you know it, before you know it
    Before you know it parent's a parent
    To have it all, to have it all
    To have it all and still want more
    One thing's for sure, one thing's for sure
    One thing's for sure we're all getting older
    So we take a lover, so we take a lover
    So we take a lover waiting in the corner
    And before you know it, before you know it,
    Before you know it, pushing up the daisies
    And we go back to where we came from
    Like those before and those to come
    And know it's the ever and the more
    And again and again and again we go
    In the end, In the end
    In the end nothing comes easy
    So you find a way, so you find a way
    So you find a way to take a little with you
    For the ones you love, for the ones you love
    For the ones you love there's if they need too
    Pharaoh, pharaoh
    Pharaoh they're not coming with you.
    And we go back to where we came from
    Like those before and those to come
    And know it's the ever and the more
    And again and again and again
    So soon we, so soon we
    So soon we're too old to carry
    And we knew it, and we knew it
    Abd we knew we only had a little while
    In the middle, in the middle
    In the middle just keep ticking over
    Before you know it, before you know it
    Before you know it parent's a parent
    And we go back to where we came from
    Like those before and those to come
    And know it's the ever and the more
    And again and again and again

      Fabricio Herrera so I’m doing a show at the moment and this is our opening number. I’ve lost track of the amount of times I’ve heard this song and until I saw your comment I legit thought this song was in gibberish.
