Georgia Lee Johnson - Younger, Brighter Lyrics

Give me a kiss goodbye
I will try not to cry
Let me lie down by your side for a little while
Hold me tight through the night
Look me right in the eye
Oh my, don't let me get away this time
Nobody knows where we go
When we die
Is heaven a heart or a home

It's days like this
When I feel the rain on my shoulder
And I have to stop and wonder
Am I even getting older
Or am I getting younger
It's days like this
When I feel the fog is lifting
And my load's a little lighter
And I notice something shifting
And the world's a little brighter
And the world's a little brighter

When I was just a child
Honey-eyed, open wide
I'd give my all in the shape of a smile
Sparks would fly from the fire
That I kept lit inside
Heating our home all around from the inside
We left our home for a new life, far away
My heart was left in the old one

It's days like this
When I feel the rain on my shoulder
And I have to stop and wonder
Am I even getting older
Or am I getting younger
It's days like this
When I feel the fog is lifting
And my load's a little lighter
And I notice something shifting
And the world's a little brighter
And the world's a little brighter

Nobody knows where we go when we die
Is heaven a heart or a home in the sky
Sometimes it feels like I'm living my whole life
Living inside of a circle of goodbyes
We left our home for a new life
My heart was left in the old one
