Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Today I'm gonna write a sad song

Gonna make it really long

So that everyone can see

That I'm very unhappy

I wish I wasn't always wrong

I wish it wasn't always my fault

The finger that you're pointing

Has knocked me on my knees

And all you need to know is I'm so sorry

It's not like me

It's maturity that I'm lacking

So don't, don't let me go

Just let me know that growing up goes slow

I wonder what my mom and dad would say

If I told them that I cry each day

It's hard enough to live so far away

I wish I wasn't always cold

I wish I wasn't always alone

When the party is over, how will I get home?

And all you need to know is I'm so sorry

It's not like me

It's maturity that I'm lacking

So don't, don't let me go

Just let me know that growing up goes slow

If all the rules are meant to bend

And you swore you were my friend

Now, I have to start all over again

'Cause no one's going to take your place

And I'm scared I'll never save

All the pieces of the love we made

And I'm so sorry, it's not like me

It's maturity that I'm lacking

So don't, don't let me go

Just let me know that I can slip and fall

And you won't let me go, just to let me know

That growing up goes slow

And I'm so sorry, it's not like me

It's maturity that I'm lacking

So don't, don't let me go

Just let me know that growing up goes slow

...
