That's How People Grow Up

[Verse 1] I was wasting my time Trying to fall in love Disappointment came to me and Booted me and bruised and hurt me [Chorus] But that's how people grow up That's how people grow up [Verse 2] I was wasting my time Looking for love Someone must look at me and See their sunlit dream I was wasting my time Praying for love For a love that never comes From someone who does not exist [Chorus] And that's how people grow up That's how people grow up [Bridge] Let me live Before I die No not me Not I [Verse 3] I was wasting my life Always thinking about myself Someone on their deathbed said: "There are other sorrows, too" I was driving my car I crashed and broke my spine So, yes, there are things worse in life than Never being someone's sweetie [Chorus] x2 [Outro] As for me, I'm OK For now, anyway
