Time Machine
Hey five year old girl in mom's dress and high heels
I know you wanna grow up and skip through these years
Years go by like minutes, keep dreaming and living
Right now all you need is right here
You planned it all out, how your life's gonna go
I know you feel scared when you're not in control
But things are gonna change, won't always go your way
And you'll find change can be beautiful
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Hey thirteen year old, you feel small in this world
Tone down your opinions and you straighten your curls
Keep writing your songs, keep dreaming your dreams
Fitting in is lonelier than it seems
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Hey nineteen year old, the night your trust was broke
Wish I could've warned you to just stay at home
It'll hurt for a while and it's okay to cry
But don't blame yourself, you couldn't have known
You're gonna be okay and you're gonna grow
There's so much more for you down the road
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Yeah I know who I am, and I'm learning as I go
I know you wanna grow up and skip through these years
Years go by like minutes, keep dreaming and living
Right now all you need is right here
You planned it all out, how your life's gonna go
I know you feel scared when you're not in control
But things are gonna change, won't always go your way
And you'll find change can be beautiful
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Hey thirteen year old, you feel small in this world
Tone down your opinions and you straighten your curls
Keep writing your songs, keep dreaming your dreams
Fitting in is lonelier than it seems
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Hey nineteen year old, the night your trust was broke
Wish I could've warned you to just stay at home
It'll hurt for a while and it's okay to cry
But don't blame yourself, you couldn't have known
You're gonna be okay and you're gonna grow
There's so much more for you down the road
Oh the time I could've saved if I had a time machine
The mistakes I could've missed if I'd known what they'd mean
I'd go back and fix things just before they broke
But would I know who I am without learning as I go
Yeah I know who I am, and I'm learning as I go
