I'll Sleep When I'm Older - Bruno Major

The taste of a cigarette in Paris in Spring

Conversation with elders and the wisdom they bring

Sunrise in Georgia as holy choirs sing

The view from an aeroplane at twelve thousand feet

Meet God on a mountain top alone with the stars

Find love somewhere, anywhere, fall deep from the start

Misplace my mind and follow my heart

See the cosmos unfolding and know I’m a part

I’ll sleep when I’m older

When the world’s got me weathered I’ll finally find my way home

I’ll sleep when I’m older

Sleep when I’m older

I’ll be a firework, not a flickering flame

Treat life all around me like a one player game

I’ll go to the party and forget all their names

Should it come back to haunt me, it ends all the same

I’ll sleep when I’m older

When the world’s got me weathered I’ll finally find my way home

I’ll sleep when I’m older

Sleep when I’m older
