23.

I've been singing for so long and writing songs for longer
I don't think I ever sang for myself
Or wrote a song that made me stronger
Maybe I need to someday
I'm doing what I want to but I have never been so scared
I was 21 yesterday I'm 23 today
Time is moving like it wants me dead
Maybe life has its way

But now I'm 23
And I don't want to feel
Like a teenager falling in love again
I can't chase my heart and lose a friend

Oh how am I 23
I thought I'd never be
Till I saw that I was meant to see
But life as it seems
Is like throwing darts in an open field
Oh how am I 23
I thought I'd never be
Before I live more than I had lived
But time is a leaf
That blows with the breeze in an open field

I need love more than ever before
And friends that are always on the door
To tell me it is okay
And that I can have some more
And my voice is not that deep
But I have come to terms with it
And I'm not six feet
It didn't bother me until her mum said it
To my face, oh what a disgrace

But now I'm 23
And I don't want to feel
Like a teenager falling in love again
I can't chase my heart and lose a friend

Oh how am I 23
I thought I'd never be
Till I saw that I was meant to see
But life as it seems
Is like throwing darts in an open field
Oh how am I 23
I thought I'd never be
Before I live more than I had lived
But time is a leaf
That blows with the breeze in an open field

And I don't mind
Getting older with time but I
Want to pause it for my mum and dad
Isn't it all just sad
That the love you've always had
Is waiting to be washed away
Like a castle made of sand
Please don't leave my hand

Oh how am I 23
I thought I'd never be
Before I live more than I had lived
But time is a leaf
That blows with the breeze in an open field
