Atlas Songtext
von Peter Jöback

Take a good look
At the lines on my face
Your smile and 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
I just 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 just 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
I just want to get older

And now that I'm Atlas
I can't wait to get older
