grow up

(sigh)
In youth's embrace, we danced with glee,
In innocence, our hearts ran free,
With dreams like stars, we aimed so high,
In endless summers, time did fly.

But seasons change, and so do we,
Through shifting tides of uncertainty,
In trials faced and lessons learned,
We tread the path, our bridges burned.

so we are growing up, every moment
these fleeting memories are a torment
I wish I could click and erase you 
off my brain, skin and heart, it is all blue
all I wanted was you, and now all I want
is to grow up, grow up, grow up, I chant.

The world expands, as do our minds,
With every step, new visions find,
From crayon scribbles to art refined,
We paint our stories, intertwined.

With each passing year, we find our way,
In joys and sorrows, come what may,
The journey's twists, the heights we climb,
Shape the person, forged through time.

so we are growing up, every moment
these fleeting memories are a torment
I wish I could click and erase you 
off my brain, skin and heart, it is all blue
all I wanted was you, and now all I want
is to grow up, grow up, grow up, I chant.

Yet in this growth, we hold dear,
The child within, forever near,
For in the tapestry of who we'll be,
The roots of youth, our legacy.

so we are growing up, every moment
these fleeting memories are a torment
I wish I could click and erase you 
off my brain, skin and heart, it is all blue
all I wanted was you, and now all I want
is to grow up, grow up, grow up, I chant.
