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
