Kaitlyn Maher - When Did We All Grow Up?
00
Copied!
Verse 1:
I used to hate la because of
All the traffic
I wanted space from mom and dad
Until i had it
I forgot to put on make-up every day
How things have changed
I’d roll my eyes when mom said she had food at home
Now, i eat cold salad in my dorm room all alone
I thought my little brother was too clingy
Until he stopped calling
Chorus:
Nothing’s the same now
Who knew growing up was such a let-down
Left out all the parts when everything you took for granted disappears
And you can’t feel the ground
Life changes
The bedroom where i grew up
I’m a guest in
And half the closet’s clothes i’ll never wear again
When did ethan’s voice get low?
When did liv go off to college?
Tell me when did we all grow up?
Verse 2:
Now i wish i kept running to the door
When dad came home
And i wish i had listened when they said put down the phone
And i wish that i ate candy more before i checked the mirror after
And i wish that i had smiled even when my teeth weren’t straight
And ran outside more nights and
Danced in the rain
I wish i’d known about the good ol’ days
‘cause
Chorus
Verse 3:
I love la even
Despite all the traffic
And i spend time with mom and dad because
I won’t always have them
I’ve started putting down my phone
‘cause memories can’t be close but
I’m learning we all grow up
I used to hate la because of
All the traffic
I wanted space from mom and dad
Until i had it
I forgot to put on make-up every day
How things have changed
I’d roll my eyes when mom said she had food at home
Now, i eat cold salad in my dorm room all alone
I thought my little brother was too clingy
