They don't tell you how to become a man With stars in your eyes, nothing in your hands Heart's been broken 240 times A couple from the lovers The rest of the faults were mine
So don't turn your back Careful what you say, it's hard to take it back Unlearn what you learned when you were three feet high Mother told you why and now it makes you cry
This is growing up And I found myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up Yeah I'm changing, this is growing up
Back to the dream we once had Back to the childhood romance When you danced all night, whеn my feet didn't move But the walls, they knеw you'd be mine
Yeah, I know it's sad Time is moving on and you can't take it back Unlearn 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 found myself again Coming back to play pretend It's so easy to be young But I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up Yeah I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up Yeah I'm changing, this is growing up This is growing up
