Lately I've been staring at the sky
Looking everywhere for a glimpse of silver line
But shorter days are all I ever find
Something doesn't feel fair about the way they're passing by

Oh what a lie
When they said everything gon' be all be all right
But what good is everything if everyone's not by your side

I feel my youth slip away like the water on the pavement
And there's nothing I can do to slow it down
Mom and Dad are getting gray and I hate that I can't change it
I wish that they could always be around
But that's just how life goes
We hit some highs and lows
But darlin' all I know is I've had enough
Dear growing up
You're getting old

Never knew that 24 would feel this way
I was learning how to walk just yesterday
Now I just wanna run away
And now problems are the only way I learn
I seem to find them every way I turn
Time's a blessing and a curse
What could be worse
We try so hard to keep the things you love
But it never works

I feel my youth slip away like the water on the pavement
And there's nothing I can do to slow it down
Mom and Dad are getting gray and I hate that I can't change it
I wish that they could always be around
But that's just how life goes
We hit some highs and lows
But darlin' all I know is I've had enough
Dear growing up
You're getting old

I'm trembling in my boots
Shaking my fist up at the blue
What can I do? What can I do?

What can I do?
Darling all I know is I've had enough
Dear growing up
You're getting old
