You're Gonna Miss This

(album: When I Close My Eyes - 2021)

I turned twenty four today
February eleven was always like a holiday
Nothing still feels the way that it did
Someone pulled the rug on me
I don't even remember the person I was gonna be
How did I get here, what did I miss

You wanted the water well you got an ocean
Baby close your eyes and just live in the moment
All your pennies turning into wishes
We get so used to it that we're getting jaded
Always wanting more, I know I'm too impatient
They don't tell you that you're gonna miss this

They don't tell you that you're gonna miss the friends you had at eighteen
Say we'll see each other soon but I'm still waiting
Cause growing up is making plans just to cancel
Calling all your friends to say you're sorry, got your hands full

They don't tell you that you're gonna meet your icons
Back when you were taking photos on your daddy's Nikon
Tryna be like all your heroes back in high school
Just to grow up and meet em and realize they're not like you

You wanted the water well you got an ocean
Baby close your eyes and just live in the moment
All your pennies turning into wishes
We get so used to it that we're getting jaded
Always wanting more, I know I'm too impatient
They don't tell you that you're gonna miss this

You wanted the water well you got an ocean
Baby close your eyes and just live in the moment
All your pennies turning into wishes
We get so used to it that we're getting jaded
Always wanting more, I know I'm too impatient
They don't tell you that you're gonna miss this
