Different Stages of Life

[Verse 1]
Patience, where's Dorothy?
She's late for afternoon tea
And the sun's getting low
She's old enough to know better by now
She's got a mind of her own

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's alright
She's in a different stage of her life

[Chorus]
Everybody needs connection, you know
Wondering which direction it'll go
I'll sit back and watch this big old river flow

[Verse 2]
He's been up since five in his wood-shop
Dressing up some pine
He's building a house of perfect ease
To please his mind and pass the time
And it's all good
You know it's made out of wood

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's alright
He's in a different stage of his life

[Chorus]
Everybody needs connection, you know
Wondering which direction it'll go
I'll sit back and watch this big old river flow

[Outro]
Sing a song for great green grass
Sing a song for dry hay
Sing a song for the wind that changed in the middle of the day
You know it's alright
We're just in different stages of life
It's alright
We're in different stages of life
