Lyrics

I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me and booted me
And bruised and hurt me

But that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up

I was wasting my time
Looking for love
Someone must look at me and see their sunlit dream
I was wasting my time
Praying for love
For a love that never comes
From someone who does not exist

And that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up

Let me live before I die
...Not me, not I

I was wasting my life
Always thinking about myself
Someone on their death-bed said:
"There are other sorrows, too."
I was driving my car
I crashed and broke my spine
So, yes, there are things worse in life
Than never being someone's sweetie

That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
As for me, I'm OK
For now, anyway
