Growing Up

Never thought I’d know someone

That would change my life

Living like super heroes

Playing god

Drinking wine

The one thing I didn’t count on

In this godforsaken town

Was we could lean on each other

When we were down

So put your arms around

My shoulders

I’ll let you lead the way

The things we remember

Will be present

Today

I don’t understand it

Not supposed to

Anyway

Why growing up

Took my best friend away

To all the years to come

The mortgage and the kids

I hope you’ll find the time

My friend.

So put your arms around

My shoulders

I’ll let you lead the way

The things we remember

Will be present

Today

I don’t understand it

Not supposed to

Anyway

Why growing up
