this is growing up - stripped

They don't tell you how to become a man
With stars in your eyes, nothing in your hands
Hearts been broken 240 times
A couple from the lovers but the rest of faults were mine

So don't turn your back
Careful what you say
It's hard to take it back
Remember what you learned when you were 3 feet high
Mother told you why and now it makes you cry

This is growing up
And I find myself again
Coming back to play pretend
It's so easy to be young
But I'm changing
This is growing up

Back to the dream we once had
Back to the childhood romance
When you danced all night
And my feet didn't move
but the walls they knew you'd be mine

Ya I know it's sad
Time is moving on
And you can't take it back
Remember what you learned
When you were 3 hours late
And your dad had to wait
Cuz you slept through half of the day

This is growing up
And I find myself again
Coming back to play pretend
It's so easy to be young
But I'm changing
This is growing up
