The End of Tyler's 15th Birthday

10PM
just sat on the floor of the living room and
played this song for tyler
i found it by "accident" tonight looking for something else.
we "made up" after our mean words before his first guitar lesson in california
it's been a long time
and it's not football.
he liked the teacher
was impressed
and then after a dinner of food he likes
he didn't have to help with dishes
which helped him out of his teenaged birthday funk.

100 Years
Five for Fighting
(same guy who sings the Superman theme song)

Im 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And Im just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

Im 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And were on fire
Making our way back from Mars

15 theres still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, theres never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

Im 33 for a moment
Still the man but you see
Im a They
Kid on the way, babe
A family on my mind...

Im 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And Im heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life

15 theres still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star

15 Im all right with you
15, theres never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

Half the time goes by
Suddenly youre wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
Were moving on...

Im 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And Im just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

15 theres still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 youre on your way
Every days a new day...

15 theres still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, theres never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
