You Wonder When It Was You Grew Up
But now you look
And you wonder
When it was you grew up
And you think how
Things will never be
As they were
Or as they are
And these last few months
Of one chapter
Are all you've got
And on to the next
But you don't feel ready
And that approaching future
Seems so heavy
Searching your mind
For that nonexistent remote
Hit the "Rewind"
Skip the bad
Relive the breezy summer days
And adventures through the woods
With your childhood
Best friend
Maybe slowly grow up again
When you're finally ready.
