Making Up for Lost Time

Don't wanna be a grownup
I wanna be a child
Don't want to feel so torn up
I wanna be alright
I always had it handled
For everybody else
Couldn't spare a moment
For myself

Now when I'm alone
These four walls turn into a world of my own
A little corner that's mine
Making up for lost time
I had to grow up too fast
Finally have the chance
To find a corner that's mine
Making up for lost time

Oh oh oh oh ooh oh ooh oh ohh
Was always last in line
I want a moment that's all mine
(Nakimo yeh yeh, manibu yeh yeh yeh)
I'm making up for lost time

Some grownups never grow up
Keep living as they were
Parents teach their children
The mistakes they've learned
Til one day kids will come home
And find they understand
Forgiving every moment
Reaching with their little hands

Now when I'm alone (Mdara mbare)
These four walls turn into a world of my own (Mbe mbe mbe)
A little corner that's mine (Mdara mbare)
Making up for lost time (Mbe mbe mbe)
I had to grow up too fast (Mdara mbare)
Finally have the chance (Mbe mbe mbe)
To find a corner that's mine (Mdara mbare)
Making up for lost time (Mbe mbe mbe)

Oh oh oh oh ooh oh ooh oh ohh
Was always last in line
I want a moment that's all mine
(Nakimo yeh yeh, manibu yeh yeh yeh)
I'm making up for lost time

I'm building something that I never had (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Looking for a way back (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Shedding the splinters of glass (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Memories I'm so far past (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Wanting all the things I never had (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Love that won't just leave you sad (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
Now I'm taking it in my own hands (Barareo barareheh ohehoh)
I'm making up for lost time
I'm making up for lost time
