Growing Up Song

(Album: Little Green House - 2022)

I'll take my time to see you from the other side
Oh, how your parents would be horrified
To see you peeling in the sunshine

As I'm getting older, the hate that I shoulder subsides
I don't care at all, I don't care at all
Have what you want put to bed, but don't turn out the lights
I don't care at all, I don't care at all

One song, last dance, and see me from the other end
I bet you'd smile and ask "what's happening?"
I'd like to see you as an old friend

Still, all of my old friends turn
They see but they don't learn

As I'm getting older, the hate that I shoulder subsides
I don't care at all, I don't care at all
Have what you want put to bed, but don't turn out the lights
I don't care at all, I don't care at all

Care at all
Care at all
Care at all

Maybe I'm just scared that you're just who I met
And I've changed enough to question myself instead this time
As I get older, how it pains me to say that I want you

I get older
How it pains me to say that I want you
And I'm small to file and sort you
But it pains me to say that I want you
And as I get older
How it pains me to say that I want you
And I'm small to file and sort you
But it pains me to say that I want you

And as I get older
How it pains me to say that I want you
And I'm small to file and sort you
But it pains me to say that I want you
