When They Get Older
I wanna be, just like you
with a smile on my face
Facing my lover
I wanna be, just like you
Heart on my sleeve,
Child on my shoulder
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
I wanna be just like you
Leaves on my cheek, if you're touching the dragon
I wanna see what you do, if you sing in my dream
I sing for you too
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
And I don't wanna be a Roman like you
I'd be happy in a room with a view
No I'm not ready for your creature comforts
I'd rather sit around everyday
And watch a billion hours trickle away
No I'm not ready for your picket fences
'cos I don't follow the buzz
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
I wanna be, just like you
with a smile on my face
Facing my lover
with a smile on my face
Facing my lover
I wanna be, just like you
Heart on my sleeve,
Child on my shoulder
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
I wanna be just like you
Leaves on my cheek, if you're touching the dragon
I wanna see what you do, if you sing in my dream
I sing for you too
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
And I don't wanna be a Roman like you
I'd be happy in a room with a view
No I'm not ready for your creature comforts
I'd rather sit around everyday
And watch a billion hours trickle away
No I'm not ready for your picket fences
'cos I don't follow the buzz
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
Like everyone does, like everyone does
Like everyone does, when they get older
I wanna be, just like you
with a smile on my face
Facing my lover
