18 years, I understand

18 years, I understand.

I will move on soon,

and you still have me banned

 

In this house, home everyday

restricted from everything,

and I will be away.

 

18 years, I understand.

You have taught me everything I need to know,

and you still have to hold my hand

 

Everywhere I go

you ask me, “Where are you going?”

and I have to say “Please let me grow.”

 

18 years, I understand

trust me when I leave

and I will do great things.
