this is growing up

They don't tell you how to become a man With stars in your eyes, nothing in your hands Heart's been broken 240 times A couple from the lovers The rest of the faults were mine [Pre-Chorus 1] So don't turn your back Careful what you say, it's hard to take it back Unlearn what you learned when you were three feet high Mother told you why and now it makes you cry [Chorus] This is growing up And I found myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up But I'm changing, this is growing up [Verse 2] Back to the dream we once had Back to the childhood romance When you danced all night, and my feet didn't move But thе walls, they knew you'd be minе [Pre-Chorus 2] Yeah, I know it's sad Time is moving on and you can't take it back Unlearn what you learned when you were three hours late And your dad had to wait 'cause you slept through half of the day [Chorus] This is growing up And I found myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up This is growing up [Outro] And I found myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up This is growing up
