Lyrics

[Verse 1] Grow up When you're young and you're dumb Only thing that you want is to grow up But you don't really know how fast it'll go 'til it shows up While you're walking your bags out the front door Or fighting back tears at the airport Asking yourself what you do it for [Chorus] 'Cause growing up For me it means missing home And birthdays through the phone Another year without me Feels like everyone around me Is growing up And I can't stop it happening But if goodbye's are all it is Maybe I just don't wanna grow up [Verse 2] Seeing dad once a year and the grey in his beard taking over Thinking 'bout how I won't be around while we're both getting older While I'm packing my bags for another flight Fighting back tears holding him tight Hoping it won't be the last time [Chorus] 'Cause growing up For me it means missing home And birthdays through the phone Another year without me Feels like everyone around me Is growing up And I can't stop it happening But if goodbye's are all it is Maybe I just don't wanna grow up [Bridge] Or I'm just scared of wasting years I wish they'd slow up It just ain't fair, one night I swear I went to sleep eighteen and drunk on life Woke up hungover, twenty-nine With the same damn Jeep I still can't believe [Chorus] Growing up I swear it happened over night A twenty-seven hour flight Left the gate and I realized That growing up For me it means missing home And heartbreak through the phone Moving on without me Feels like everyone around me Is growing up And I can't stop it happening But if goodbye's are all it is Maybe I just don't wanna grow up Mm Maybe I just don't wanna grow up
