"Grown Up" lyrics

"Grown Up"

When I was younger, had no fear of getting older
Now it's creeping up on me
Like a sleeve that slowly rise up on your arms
Climb in the bed, I hold the hands of pretty strangers
All so I can keep pretending
It's the feeling of my mother's loving arms

I can not make the same mistakes the way I used to
No one to tie up my shoe laces like they used to
When did they let go of my hands?
Don't they understand, oh I, oh, I

Oh, I don't want to live like a grown up anymore
Oh, I feel so lost and lonely, can I go back home?
Oh... why can't I go back home?
My keys don't fit the door
Why can't I go back home? Home

Now that I'm older, oh the realization's cold
If you need someone to lean on
Everybody's got a problem of their own
I called my father in the hopes of finding comfort
When we talk about our week
We both make believe that we don't feel alone

I can not make the same mistakes the way I used to
No one to tie up my shoe laces like they used to
When did they let go of my hands?
Don't they understand, oh I, oh, I

I, I don't want to live like a grown up anymore
I, I feel so lost and lonely, can I go back home?
Oh... why can't I go back home?
My keys don't fit the door
Why can't I go back home? Home

Oh... I wanna go back home
My keys don't fit the door
I wanna go back home, home
