Die Young

Lyrics

I was feeling my age, I was up on a stage I was missing my woman, we were turning a page I'd sing my songs as the crowd sang along Look how far we've traveled now, baby, look how far we've come And even though we tried in the beginning not to survive [Chorus] Well, thank God that we didn't die young We pressed on and on [Verse 2] Time was moving too fast, I got to missing the past And this old econoline always getting low on gas So pull over and rest, a blood brother, a pact And we will live on forever, babe, with the wind at our backs Mix your blood with mine, let our songs build rooms in time [Chorus] And see to it that if we die young I'll live on through you And you'll live on through me, too [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Crashed the ranger in a ditch, Louisiana Texas state line (That God that we didn’t die young) Caleb blew the windshield driving outta Boone one summer afternoon (Thank God that we didn’t die young) Head to feet, don't fall asleep, I'm worried that you won’t wake up (Thank God that we didn’t die young) Next door neighbor in her garden heard the cries coming through the walls (Thank God that we, thank God that we) Walk the Dallas interstate, baby, it’s only one mile (Thank God that we didn’t die young) Flying over highways like we weren't butterflies (Thank God that we, thank God that we) Fell in love (Thank God that we, thank God that we) Grew up (Thank God that we, thank God that we) Mm-mm-mm [Outro] (Thank God that we, thank God that we) Thank God that we didn't die young
