~Your little hand's wrapped around my finger and it's so quiet in the world tonight. Your little eyelids flutter cos you're dreamin' so I tuck you in, turn on your favourite night light. To you everything's funny. You got nothing to regret. I'd give all I have, honey if you could stay like that. Oh, darling don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up. Just stay this little. Oh, darling don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up. It could stay this simple...~
~...No one's ever burned you. Nothing's ever left you scarred. And even though you want to...just try to never grow up. Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room. Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home. Remember the footsteps, remember the words said, and all your little brother's favourite songs...I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone...~
~So here I am in my new apartment in a big city, they just dropped me off. It's so much colder than I thought it would be, so I tuck myself in and turn the night light on...Wish I'd never grown up. I wish I'd never grown up. Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up. I could still be little. Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up. It could still be simple...~
