Die Young - Kevin Morby
Lyrics by:Kevin Robert Morby
Composed by:Kevin Robert Morby

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
Well thank God that we didn't die young
We pressed on and on
Time was moving too fast I got to missing the past
And this old Econoline was 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
And see to it that if we die young
I'll live on through you
And you'll live on through me too
Crashed the Ranger in a ditch Louisiana-Texas state line
Thank 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
Thank God that we thank God that we
Thank God that we didn't die young
