Love Your Family

How old do you have to get before you're honest with your parents
And can tell them about the time Kate broke your heart without getting embarrassed?
How old do you have to turn before you see you're no longer a teenager
Take your anger, burn it up, and leave those grudges forever?

How old do you have to grow before you see your mom's an old lady
Who's probably all alone and definitely misses her baby?
How old do you have to get before both your parents die and you're left saying
I wish, I wish, I wish, I?

How old do you have to get before you see yourself in your family
And start to love them for it as your closest connection out of all humanity?
How long has to pass by before you tell your dad and mom
"I'm sorry. I love you. Thanks for the things you did right
You're forgiven for what you did wrong"?
