Don't Wish It All Away

I used to sleep away the mornings Couldn't wait till the sun went down The weekend was always calling I couldn't wait to get myself downtown Mum and dad would try to reach me I was too busy to take their calls I say I can talk tomorrow, but I never did and that's nothing new at all But those days are long gone now And you wake up a little older Your babies lying on your shoulder and just like that everything has changed You can't stop time, days will always roll on by and before you know it you realise nothing stays the same If I could tell my younger self I'd say don't wish it all away Getting muddy in the backyard too, letting me teach you how to play guitar I'll be there when your heart breaks and watch you take a drive in your first car I often think if you are like me falling out of a gate when you turn 18 You probably think it's going slowly but don't move too fast cause things will all work out but I'm worrying about right now You wake up a little older you're teenage crying on your shoulder and just like that everything has changed You can't stop time days will always roll on by and before you know it you realise nothing stays the same If i could tell my younger self i'd say don't wish it all away Cause just like that it's moments you can't get back So don't wish it all away Yeah Ohohoo Ohohoo You wake up a little older you're hoping that your kids come over and just like that everything has changed Can't stop time days will always roll on by and before you know it you realise nothing stays the same If I could tell my younger self I'd say even though life goes so fast it's all ok but don't wish it all away Ohhh yeah Don't wish it all away
