We are all growing up way too fast

Blinked just twice, now all this time has passed

Sometimes I think about it and it feels like yesterday was

Recess at noon, run to the book fair at three

Cute matching lunchbox and a backpack for me

I'll learn to read and say my abc's

Now college rolls around in 365 days

When we're all gone, I'll hardly see your faces

Gonna be a hard time, gonna be a big change

This is me saying goodnight to my inner child

It's time to sleep now baby, here comes the real world

Please pay attention it's gonna be a long drive

This is real life
