Dear Growing Up Lyrics

One, two, three

Woah, ooh

Woah, ooh

Lately I've been starin' at the sky

Looking everywhere for a glimpse of silver line

But shorter days are all I ever find

Somethin' doesn't feel fair about the way they're passin' by

Oh what a lie

When they said everything gon' be all, be alright

But what good is everything if everyone's not by your side

I feel my youth slip away like the water on the pavement

And there's nothin' I can do to slow it down

Mom and dad are getting grey, and I hate that I can't change it

I wish that they could always be around

But that's just how life goes

We hit some highs and lows

But darlin' all I know is I've had enough

Dear growin' up, you're gettin' old

Woah, ooh

Woah, ooh

Never knew that twenty-four would feel this way

I was learnin' how to walk just yesterday

Now I just wanna run away

And now problems are the only way I learn

I seem to find them every way I turn

Time's a blessin' and a curse

What could be worse? (What could be worse?)

You try so hard to keep the things you love

But it never works

I feel my youth slip away like the water on the pavement

And there's nothin' I can do to slow it down (Nothin' I can do)

Mom and dad are getting grey, and I hate that I can't change it

I wish that they could always be around (Mmm)

But that's just how life goes

We hit some highs and lows

But darlin' all I know is I've had enough

Dear growin' up, you're gettin' old
