Your little hand's wrapped around my finger And it's so quiet in the world tonight You little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light To you everything's funny You got nothing to regret I'd give all I have, honey If you could stay like that
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up Just stay this little Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up It could stay this simple I won't let nobody hurt you Won't let no one break your heart And no one will desert you Just try to never grow up Never grow up
You're in the car on the way to the movies And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off At 14, there's just so much you can't do And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots But don't make her drop you off around the block Remember that she's getting older too And don't lose the way that you dance around in your PJ's getting ready for school
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up Just stay this little Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up It could stay this simple No one's ever burned you Nothing's ever left you scarred And even though you want to Just try to never grow up
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home Remember the footsteps, remember the words said And all your little brother's favorite songs I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone
So here I am in my new apartment In a big city, they just dropped me off It's so much colder than I thought it would be So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on
Wish I'd never grown up I wish I'd never grown up
Oh I don't wanna grow up Wish I'd never grown up I could still be little Oh, I don't wanna grow up Wish I'd never grown up It could still be simple Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up Just stay this little Oh darling, don't you ever grow up Don't you ever grow up It could stay this simple Won't let nobody hurt you Won't let no one break your heart And even though you want to Please try to never grow up Oh Don't you ever grow up Oh Never grow up Just never grow upTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
