Don't Ever Grow Up

When I was a child, the freedom Made us run for miles, it hit the floor Some more Knocking on the doors of strangers Hiding so they couldn't chase us No Take me back To the days my stomach hurt from all the laughs Another bruise from falling down Games we played, memories fade Jumbled words, no sense was made Young, we lived, we felt no pain Never let it go Mum's all we know Don't ever grow up Let the rain pour down on us The mud will slide us right home back to you Acting like a clown with tantrums Throwing tears around, we were so bad We know When to stop and start Then Mum and Dad's love fell apart It broke our hearts A love so strong You taught us well in everything we know A lesson learned in how to grow You'll be proud for all the years You kept us safe, you calmed our fears So thankful for the things you do This song, these words, this music's all for you Mum's all we know Don't ever grow up Let the rain pour down on us The mud will slide us right home back to you You gotta, you've gotta, you gotta feel it The magic, the story, you'll always need it That second, that moment, you didn't feel it You're missing the kisses, your mum is healing Every little piece of my life will be of meaning That feeling in your gut when you know you must be dreaming Oh, every little piece of my life will be of meaning You, you've gotta, you gotta, feel it too Mum's all we know Don't ever grow up Let the rain pour down on us The mud will slide us right back home to you Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh
