Before you know it
Play your last home game
And you throw your cap in the sky
Before you know it you'll be packing your bags
to leave your small town behind
But I've got all this wrong, baby
'Cause none of it will ever happen to me

Wish I could go back, have fun
And grow young
I don't see the rush of growing old
At what point in time does a heart go cold?
My youth was short, but it can't be done
Oh babe, I just wanna grow young
Oh babe, I just wanna grow young

Do you remember when we laughed 'til we cried?
How we danced like no one could see?
Do you remember sneakin' out in the night
Being whoever we wanted to be?

Oh, I wish we could go back
Have fun
And grow young
I don't see the rush of growing old
At what point in time does a heart go cold?
My youth was short
but it can't be done
Oh babe, I just wanna grow young
Oh babe, I just wanna grow young

Before you know it
You'll be responsible and paying taxes
And paying attention to the Tv
Before you know it
You'll be old and you'll be gray
And you'll wanna be a stupid teen

Wish you could go back, have fun
Go back, have fun
You'll wish you could go back, have fun
Go back, baby
Go back and grow young
I don't see the rush of growing old
Oh babe I just wanna grow young
Wish I could go back, have fun
And grow young
