Stanley Brothers - When My Savior Reached Down lyrics

(Gary Morris - Randy Hart)

They're looking older

Younger now

Growing bolder somehow

These days.

You're doing things that I wouldn't do

There's less of me and so much more

Of you these days.

I saw myself in my baby's eyes

You're not my baby now it's no surprise

These days.

You're the quiet storm

I'm the rock you never could roll

So pick me up now

I think it's time to let you

Toss me in the water

But before the ripples settle

You'll be in my space in another time

Maybe then we'll share a state of mind

Someday.

When the future Mom and Daddy plan

passes from me to you you'll understand

Someday.

Chorus:

So let your fire burn

Try to keep it under control

Remember flames die

And everybody loses if

The heat of the moment brings an early arrival

It's a senior ring or a wedding band

A girls a woman now a boys a man

These days.

So let your fire burn

Try to keep it under control

Remember flames die

And everybody loses if

The heat of the moment brings

An early arrival.

Looking older

Younger now my boys

Growing bolder somehow

These days.

They're looking older

Younger now my boys

Growing bolder somehow

These days...
