El Principito Lyrics

October leaves are falling

It's over, the summer sun is sinking low

And I'm afraid to let it go

I'm older, and wiser

But colder, and tired

I know that this ain't how it's meant to go

Why don't we stop growing old and lonely

Cause it's just all we know

I don't want to be an adult

They told me "your dreams are worthless"

But they only care about the numbers and the figures

But life ain't no statistic in the end

I know that I can't change

The way that time, it flies on by

It seems like we don't ever have enough

Just know that it's okay

You don't have to stop being young and wild

You're gonna grow old but you don't have to grow up

There once was a little prince

Who wandered across the desert sand

Just looking for a friend

He showed us that life is good

Just open your eyes and see the sun

And make sure your life is filled with love

I know that I can't change

The way that time, it flies on by

It seems like we don't ever have enough

Just know that it's okay

You don't have to stop being young and wild

You're gonna grow old but you don't have to grow up
