Elixirs
I wasn’t quite prepared for this, I know
My hands still haven’t got used to the ropes I promise I’ll grow stronger as we go
I’ll get a tighter grip here for the pull
But I’m taking a drink from the fountain I’m trying the elixir of youth
I’m coming on down from the mountain I’m re-reading the whole book of truth
That calories were burning at the door You’ll have to carry me from off the floor I wasn’t quite prepared for this I know
I grew up a featherbed at home
But I’m taking a drink from the fountain I’m trying the elixir of youth
I’m coming on down from the mountain I’m re-reading the whole book of truth
I’m coming on down from the mountain with some wisdom that’s on my tongue I’m taking a drink from the fountain
So I’ll make the day like I am young
