Sad Song

Today I'm Gonna write a sad song,
I'm gonna make it really long
so that everyone can see,
that I'm very unhappy.

I wish I wasn't always wrong
I wish it wasn't always my fault
but the finger that you're pointing
has knocked me on my knees
and all you need to know is,

I'm so sorry its not like me,
its maturity that I'm lacking
so don't, don't let me go
just let me know,
that growing up goes slow.


I wonder what my mom and dad would say,
if I told them that I cry each day.
its hard enough to live so far away.

I wish It wasn't always cold
I wish I wasn't always alone
When the party is over,
how will I get home?
and all you need to know is

I'm sorry its not like me,
its maturity that I'm lacking
so don't, don't let me go
just let me know, that growing up goes slow

If the rules were meant to bend
and you swore you were my friend
now I have to start all over again

Cause no ones going to take you're place
And I'm scared I'll never save,
All the pieces of the love we made.

And I'm so sorry, it's not like me
It's maturity that I'm lacking
So don't, don't let me go
Just let me know

that I can slip and fall
and you won't let me go
Just let me know
That growing up goes slow

And I'm so sorry,
It's not like me
It's maturity that I'm lacking.
So don't, don't let me go
Just let me know
That growing up goes slow.
