That's How People Grow Up

I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me and
Booted me and bruised and hurt meThat's how people grow up
That's how people grow upI was wasting my time
Looking for love
Someone must look at me
And see their sunlit dreamI was wasting my time
Praying for love
For a love that never comes from
Someone who does not exist andThat's how people grow up
That's how people grow upLet me live before I die
Not me, not I!I was wasting my life
Always thinking about myself
Someone on the deathbed said
"There are other sorrows too"I was driving my car
I crashed and broke my spine
So yes, there are things worse in life than
Never being someone's sweetieThat's how people grow up
That's how people grow upThat's how people grow up
That's how people grow upAs for me I'm okay
For now anyway
