"Grow Apart" lyrics

"Grow Apart"

Grew up a couple houses down
Man we ran that town
We were only thirteen but we were thick as thieves
He's married now

Heard he had a kid last may
And I don't even know his name
Looks just like him, what happened
It was only yesterday
We said we'd never grow up

But time flies, days go by
You swear you'll get a beer
Trucks break down, bills pile up
There goes another year
You're growing every day
And you can't change it cause you are
I guess you either grow together
Or you grow apart

The truth is sometimes
Promises turn into lies
The girl sitting shotgun I thought I loved
Doesn't even cross my mind
It hurt like hell at the time

But time flies, days go by
You forget about those tears
Trucks break down, bills pile up
There goes another year
You're growing every day
You're always changing who you are
I guess you either grow together
Or you grow apart

So I keep my family close
Father son and the holy ghost
Still learning as I go
But there's one thing I know

Time flies, days go by
So live 'em while they're here
Trucks break down, bills pile up
But it's never been more clear
Spending time together is
A perfect place to start
Cause yeah you either grow together
Or you grow apart
And I don't wanna grow apart
Mm, I don't wanna grow apart
