Atlas

Ed Harcourt, Kathryn Williams, Peter Joback

Take a good look

At the lines on my face

Your smile & my heart ache

I guess they left a trace

But I wouldn't take away

Or erase or replace

The living I've done

The proof on this case

like the arc in the line

Oh I'm just a guy

Holding up the sky

And now that I'm Atlas

With my world on my shoulder

Feeling so timeless

I just want to get older

I have lived a life with no regrets

Been a Romeo, a Juliet

But now that I'm Atlas

I want to get older 

Take a good look

At the face of the clock

It doesn't daydream

Forget to tick or to tock

And like these rings in a tree

Cut down for the fire

I own a history inside

that has never felt tired

like the arc in the line

Oh I'm just a guy

Holding up the sky

And now that I'm Atlas

With my world on my shoulder

Feeling so timeless

I just want to get older

I have lived a life with no regrets

Played a Romeo, a Juliet

But now that I'm Atlas

I want to get older 

See the view from my shoulder 

It's a long way down

I want to get older

Only I know when it's all over 

And now that I'm Atlas

With my world on my shoulder

Feeling so timeless

I just want to get older

I have lived a life with no regrets

Been a Romeo, a Juliet

But now that I'm Atlas

I want to get older
