I Grow up Fast

My teenage years are getting sort of hazy

But I know I remember how nothing fazed me

In the dark at night

I’d lay awake and dream

Then we were getting crazy

I was almost twenty

Had the baby dolls but didn’t have any money

And the sound was on

I was trying to make that scene

I grow up fast

the future’s catching up to the past

What would the girls say now if I asked them to dance

I try not to look back but I know enough now to attack

I wanna make it last

I grow up fast

My mama cried when I pulled out the driveway

but I waved goodbye and rolled down the highway

to another life I felt like I should have

I met a whole lotta people that I can’t remember

There were lonely times, but I never surrender

I grow up fast

the future’s catching up to the past

What would the girls say now if I asked them to dance

I try not to look back, but I know enough now to attack

I wanna make it last

I grow up fast
