GROWN UPS GROW APART Lyrics by Betty Who

BIG!

2022

[Verse 1]
I saw your picture in a box last night
Seems I'm always unpackin'
Yeah, I moved again, did I tell you that?
It got me thinkin'
I've been missin' you, thought of callin' you, yeah, I wanted to
But I got anxious 'cause that's what adults do
And they start lookin' back
Don't you hate that?
[Verse 2]
Now, you're weighin' on my thoughts tonight
Can you explain this?
How can you know everything and nothin' about my life
At the same time?
Time is crazy, I don't know where all my life has gone
I told you secrets, did you keep them?
Do you miss home when you start lookin' back
[Chorus]
To those basements and backyard dances
Our song, the front seat of my Jeep
In love and takin' chances
The night you looked at me and said
"Time won't fly, I won't let it"
Promise you won't forget it
The way that it is, the way that we are
'Cause kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
Grown-ups grow apart
Yeah
[Verse 3]
Do you remember summer '09
On my birthday?
After dinner, you introduced me to the guy you liked
Now, in hindsight
You're so beautiful, I was insecure, and I won't lie
It was my birthday and I wanted him
And I hate that I could hurt your feelings like that, yeah
And I can't take it back
[Chorus]
To those basements and backyard dances
Our song, the front seat of my Jeep
In love and takin' chances
The night you looked at me and said
"Time won't fly, I won't let it"
Promise you won't forget it
The way that it is, the way that we are
'Cause kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
Kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
Yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
[Chorus]
Those basements and backyard dances
Our song, the front seat of my Jeep
In love and takin' chances
The night you promised me, you said
"Time won't fly, I won't let it"
Promise you won't forget it
The way that it is, the way that we are
'Cause kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
Kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
[Outro]
Kids grow up and grown-ups grow apart
