Hello, hey boy, you made it this far
Halfway through, a little over par
You got a late start, yeah, but here you are
Not a rockstar, but you’re a rock
Climbed to the top, and now a fool on the hill
Don’t know where to go but the view is a thrill
Stuck in the middle, but I feel it still
Like a rolling stone: roll on
As far as these eyes can see this life’s been good to me
Downhill from here
Go on, look back, see how these wheels got on track, and now
It’s all downhill from here
They say this stage comes suddenly
But that’s not the way that it came for me
Time moves slow and quite predictably
It’s like one and two, hit the “and of three”
Doubt, fatigue, indecision and fear
2020 came and made our vision clear
I’m seeing new timelines on the man in mirror
Getting better as the years go on
As far as these eyes can see this life’s been good to me
Downhill from here
We may be halfway done, here’s where we get to run
It’s all downhill from here
Downhill from here
Downhill from here
As far as these eyes can see this life’s been good to me
Downhill from here
Go on, look back, see how these wheels got on track and now
It’s all downhill from here
Look where we’ve been before, see what He’s got in store
Downhill from here
We may be halfway done, here’s where we get to run
It’s all downhill from here
