When I was a kid
I would lie on the ground,
Searching the clouds
For anything meaningful.
And probably like you,
I wondered what I would do
When I was grown up,
No longer a pup,
A full-fledged contributor to my world.
Then I hit junior high.
What a scary new phase:
The girls quickly changed
From bratty to beautiful.
And first thing you know,
I was ready to go.
Double-dated bliss,
A single goodnight kiss
That kept me out on the porch wanting so much more.
And when you're a kid
The world seems impossibly big to you.
You'll never live up to the hopes and the dreams
Of everyone planning their schemes for you.
What will you do?
BRIDGE
Ah. Ooh.
And when you're a kid
The world seems impossibly big to you.
You'll never live up to the hopes and the dreams
Of everyone planning their schemes for you.
What will you do?
So I finally grew up
And I finally found love.
But was it pure luck
Or was it our destiny?
Whatever the cause,
I will keep holding on
To the hand that I trust
And the plans we've discussed,
Loving you loving me
In a future that I couldn't see
When I was a kid.
