Spain
As you're growing older will you tell me why
When I was younger you refused to cry
As I was moving through my life at the pace of a racecar
Like on my graduation day
When I was in such a hurry I forgot to take a photo worth framing
But at least it was raining when I walked through the Arch
Now I'm growing up and I'm moving on
Tempted to move back home
They say youth is wasted on the young, but not where I come from
I believe that wisdom's wasted on the old
If I could go back and do what I was told
I'd be something greater than I've become
But I still got time to blow, still got dreams to hold
Still got people to meet, and I still got places to go
I wanna see Spain, solve the world's pain, and end up famous
Take me back to a Little League field
Parents in the grandstands, home-cooked meals
Now it's fast-food drive throughs, politics, and bad news for every conversation I guess
Think I'd rather talk about love and religion than
Which vaccine that your friends' been getting, so move on
From division, find something from within you to love them
Give me one more day, back when I was only fourteen
And I will do what you say, and tell you I love you every day
Now that I'm older I can't go back, but I can start to make that change
Cause I still got time to blow, still got dreams to hold
Still got people to meet, and I still got places to go
I wanna see Spain, fall in love in the rain, and just be okay
Just be okay
When I was younger you refused to cry
As I was moving through my life at the pace of a racecar
Like on my graduation day
When I was in such a hurry I forgot to take a photo worth framing
But at least it was raining when I walked through the Arch
Now I'm growing up and I'm moving on
Tempted to move back home
They say youth is wasted on the young, but not where I come from
I believe that wisdom's wasted on the old
If I could go back and do what I was told
I'd be something greater than I've become
But I still got time to blow, still got dreams to hold
Still got people to meet, and I still got places to go
I wanna see Spain, solve the world's pain, and end up famous
Take me back to a Little League field
Parents in the grandstands, home-cooked meals
Now it's fast-food drive throughs, politics, and bad news for every conversation I guess
Think I'd rather talk about love and religion than
Which vaccine that your friends' been getting, so move on
From division, find something from within you to love them
Give me one more day, back when I was only fourteen
And I will do what you say, and tell you I love you every day
Now that I'm older I can't go back, but I can start to make that change
Cause I still got time to blow, still got dreams to hold
Still got people to meet, and I still got places to go
I wanna see Spain, fall in love in the rain, and just be okay
Just be okay
