Dear Me

Dear me, you'll be older one day
I'm writing from the future and you're doing ok
I said now, dear me, hold on to what you've got
Things are gonna change, but change is better than you thought

Dear me
I know you're scared as hell of everything right now
But don't get lost and where you're going
Dear me
You're gonna fall in love with the girl that you live next door to
And you have no real way of knowing

You don't know who you are
You don't know who you are
You don't know who you are
But I know you're trying
You don't know who you are
You don't know who you are
You don't know who you are
But you're multiplying

Dear me, you'll be older one day
I'm writing from the future and you're doing ok
I said now dear me, hold on to what you've got
Things are gonna change, but change is better than you thought

Said you gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together
You gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together

Dear me
Don't keep people in your life that treat you like crap
And don't lose sleep over them either
Dear me
Never give up on the good that rests inside of you
And don't believe the non-believers

You gonna make mistakes
You gonna make mistakes
You gonna make mistakes
But they will fall behind you
You gonna make mistakes
You gonna make mistakes
You gonna make mistakes
But they won't define you

Dear me, you'll be older one day
I'm writing from the future and you're doing ok
I said now dear me, hold on to what you've got
Things are gonna change but change is better than you thought

Said you gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together
You gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together

Take care of family and the ones you love
Put all your energy into human stuff
Staying young is hard to do
So when life's getting serious just don't take it so serious.

I said dear me, hold on to what you've got
Things are gonna change but change is better than you thought

Said you gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together
You gonna get yourself, get yourself, get yourself together

Keep growing up, but don't get old
Take care of what you can't control
Respect the heart that you're gonna break
Forgive mistakes that you will make
If I were you I would not care
But some old messes to beware
So you probably won't listen to a word I say
You probably won't listen to a word I say
You probably won't listen to a word I say
You're doing ok
Dear me.
