[00:36.4]And the pear tree is budding up a third year

作曲 : Nicole Zefanya

Well, what do you know?

Suddenly you’re older now

They call you a grown up, with the dog and the bills and the garden and the picturesque house

And if your mother were still here

the fallen blossoms on the lawn would all disappear

And you’re in love, you pray to God it’s forever

But you look around, and think why try altogether?

But he’s endless, and on my skin like sand on the shore

And that’s enough for me right now anyway at 24

You travel the world, swim under a waterfall

You have everything you ever wanted

you wonder when your dad will call

Then you’re in New York again

with your oldest friend

and the basket of bread’s still warm

And that’s enough for me right now anyway at 24

Oh, I know more than I ever have

and yet I know nothing at all

I’m a floating feather, I’m a constant cannonball

I’m somebody’s baby, and someone else’s midnight call

I know more than I ever have

and yet nothing at all

Well, what do you know?

Suddenly you’re 24
