Old Enough Lyrics - Nellie Mckay

Never thought I'd live to be old enough 

To be old enough to feel like this and 

Never thought I'd figure it out enough 

To be loud enough to make you listen 

On and on the meadows sing 

They ring out merry the view 

On and on my conscience blared 

And shared my longing for you 

Never thought I'd live to be old enough 

To be bold enough to make a difference 

Never thought I'd figure it out enough 

To be proud enough to take my mission 

Never thought I'd live to be smart enough 

To have heart enough to find a better way

Never thought I'd live to be old enough 

To have soul enough to pass perdition 

Never thought I'd count up the years enough 

To be clear enough on my convictions 

Life ain't all it claims to be 

It clings to me when it's blue 

Life brought all its pain to me 

And shamed my longing for you

Never thought I'd live to be old enough 

To be told enough to lose the bullies 

Never thought I's able to learn enough 

To be firm enough to live life fully 

Never thought I'd live to be strong enough 

To be young enough to find a better song 

Then you came along 

Never thought I'd live to be old enough
