This Is the Age - Tom Grennan

They say a king ain’t a king without his rubies and gold

But I know kings with little things and by god does he have it all

It’s not in dimes that defines the way a man should show his love

Take the time to read between the lines

Because Rome wasn’t built in a day

And patience is the only way

This is the age of the lost and the found

And now raise a glass to those who choose to live without

And don’t need no king for a castle or a ticket to the stars

So close your eyes and know how lucky you are

So close your eyes and know how lucky you are

Now that we’ve sung and you know you’re not the only one to see behind the truth

The ceremonial dispute of love and hate and war and games

Before them white horses come galloping, you’re battling

Don’t forget to read between the lines

Because Rome wasn’t built in a day

And patience is the only way
