Once When I Was Young

Once when I was young
I dreamed to be old
To be a be a big girl
And finally face the world

But then I grew up
And learned pretty quick
Being an adult
Isn't that great

Faced with great problems
Life has to offer
Things I never needed to face
Back when I was younger

And now that I'm an adult
I yearn to be young once more
To have my parents beside me
And be in their safe and warm hold
