I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me andBooted me and bruised and hurt me
But that's how people grow upThat's how people grow up
I was wasting my time
Looking for love
Someone must look at me andSee
their sunlit dream
I was wasting my timePraying for love
For a love that never comes
From someone who does not exist
And that's how people grow upThat's how people grow up
Let me liveBefore I die
No not meNot I
I was wasting my life
Always
thinking about myself
Someone on their deathbed said
There are other sorrows tooI was driving my carI crashed and broke my spine
So yes
there are things worse in life thanNever being someone's sweetie
That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
As for me
I'm okay
For now
anyway
