The Older You Get, The Less You Cry Lyrics


Lany The Older You Get, The Less You Cry

[Verse 1]
I fell in love at seventeen
Had to make a choice, either her or my dreams
And I fell in love on the road, but that was a long time ago
I fell for the wrong girl, the type to start a fire
And leave you there to burn
And I found a way to stay alive
But somethin' in me that day died

[Pre-Chorus]
How does anyone make it out better?
Someone tell me the words I should say
How does anyone keep it forever?
I barely madе it through yesterday

[Chorus]
I wish I could love likе I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
It's gettin' easier to say goodbye
The older you get, the less you cry
I wish I didn't give all of me away
And I'd take back the things that I wish I didn't say
It's gettin' harder as the days go by
The older you get, the less you cry

[Verse 2]
And I don't know what I gotta change
No matter what I do, it always ends the same
And I'm not givin' up yet
But I don't got a whole lot left
[Pre-Chorus]
How does anyone make it out better?
Someone tell me the words I should say
How does anyone keep it forever?
I barely made it through yesterday

[Chorus]
I wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
It's gettin' easier to say goodbye
The older you get, the less you cry
I wish I didn't give all of me away
And I'd take back the things that I wish I didn't say
It's gettin' harder as the days go by
The older you get, the less you cry

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry
Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry

[Chorus]
I wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
It's gettin' easier to say goodbye
The older you get, the less you cry
I wish I didn't give all of me away
And I'd take back the things that I wish I didn't say
It's gettin' harder as the days go by
The older you get, the less you cry
[Post-Chorus]
The older I get, the less that I cry
The less that I feel, I'm not gonna lie
(Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry)
The older I get, the less that I cry
The less that I feel, I'm not gonna lie
(Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, the less I cry)

[Outro]
I wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
It's gettin' easier to say goodbye
The older you get, the less you cry
