(w) [K]

When I grow up, I want to be...
Back when I was a young boy...

When I was young, I knew what it was to care free
When I am old, I'll know what it means to be care free
Right now, I know I care too much to be free

When I was young, I know I did what I wanted
When I am old, I know I'll do what I wanna do
Right now, I don't get to do what I wanna do

No more than I know, know more than I know now
No more than I know, no more than I know now, right now

When I was young, I didn't know what my body could do
When I am old, I know I will but won't be able to
Right now, I know my body and where it's going to

When I was young, I know I grabbed for anything
When I am old, I know I'll have learned to let go
Right now, I know I hold on to everything

No more than I know, know more than I know now
No more than I know, no more than I know now, right now

When I was young, I know what it was to care free
When I am old, I'll know to let go a life of caring
Right now, I know I carry too much to be free
No more than I know, know more than I know now
No more than I know, no more than I know now

When I was your age
Yeah, when I was a young boy
This kid said...
And then this old guy showed up
And he says, "I'm not getting any younger
But I know what I know"
