this is growing up

They don't tell you how to become a man With stars in your eyes, nothing in your hands Hearts been broken 240 times A couple from their lovers, the rest of the thoughts were mine So don't turn your back Careful what you say, tried to take it back Remember what you learned when you were three feet high? Mother told you why and now it makes you cry Ooh, oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh This is growing up And I find myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing This is growing up Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (this is growing up) Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I'm changing) (this is growing up) Back to the dream we once had Back to the childhood romance When you danced all night and my feet didn't move But the walls they knew, you'd be mine Yeah, I know it's sad Time is moving on and you can't take it back Remember what you learned when you were three hours late And your dad had to wait 'cause you slept through half of the day? This is growing up And I find myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing This is growing up Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (this is growing up) Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (this is growing up) And I find myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing This is growing up Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (this is growing up) Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I'm changing) (this is growing up)
