Growing Up

Growing Up

Past our hearts retreat I reminisce
A colour faded daisy chain
Salad days in parks with swings
Echoes in the rain
Rolling through the summer hay
First caress of Karen's breasts
Stealing secret kisses
So warm and yet so wet

Oh I miss the boy I knew
The boy I used to be
Did you see? So quick he grew
Mmm that was me
Oh that was me

Double dares and blushing games
Stumbling over grown-up things
Show me yours I'll show you mine
Marry me with plastic rings
Hold my hand and come for tea
I love you and you love me
Carving hearts upon a tree
Feeling good and feeling silly

Oh I miss the boy I knew
The boy I used to be
Did you see? So quick he grew
Mmm that was me
Oh that was me

The past is calling to me
Breathing, moving right through me
Stepping out from my brain and into the truth
Oh my youth
Growing up is beautiful
Growing up is pain
Growing up is sensuality
Growing up is insane
Growing up is angry
Growing up is love
Growing up is sexuality
Growing up is all of the above
