Lyrics Getting Older - Sarah Close

Getting Older

I was talking to my dad about the year that we’ve just had
'Cause time, it keeps on passing by and I don’t know how to say goodbye
I swear yesterday, I was fifteen
A teenager with hopes and dreams
I’m still the kid I used to be but I’ve got responsibilities
And I don’t know how to make time go slow
I feel the same but all around me, everything’s changed
I never see a moment till it’s over
I’m too busy trying to grow up
I forgot I’m getting older
(This is Sarah’s recording tape
I’ll sing you about as many songs I got
Here is song number one)
All those laughs I thought were built to last are now more more fragments of my
past
It’s funny thinking 'bout the ways life could have been if we hadn’t changed
Some day, I’ll see my parents die
The thought alone, it makes me cry
Now I say I love you twice as much 'cause you never know when time is up
And I don’t know how to make time go slow
I feel the same but all around me, everything’s changed
I never see a moment till it’s over
I’m too busy trying to grow up
I’m too busy trying to grow up
I’m too busy trying to grow up
I forgot I’m getting older
(So, I’ll be back maybe in a few hours, few minutes
Well, I don’t know when so bye-bye, see you for now)
