Lyrics
I on ly want ed to have fun,
learn ing to fly, learn ing to run.
I let my heart de cide the way it’s like when I was young.
Deep down I must have al ways known
that this would be in or ev i ta ble.
To earn my stripes, I’d have to pay
in and bare my soul.
(Mm,
mm,
mm,
mm.)
I know I’m not the on ly one
who re grets the things they’ve done.
Some times I just feel it’s on ly me
who can’t stand the re flec tion they that they see.
I wish I could live a lit tle more,
look up to the sky, not just the floor.
I feel like my life is flash ing by,
and all I can do is watch and cry.
I miss the air, I miss my friends, I miss my moth er; I miss it when
life was a par ty to be thrown,
but that was a mil lion years a go.
When I walk a round all of the streets
where I grew up and found my feet,
I they can’t look me in the eye, it’s like they’re scared of me.
I try to think of things to say,
that like a joke in or a mem o ry.
But they don’t rec og nize me now, in the light of day.
(Mm,
mm,
mm,
mm.)
I know I’m not the on ly one
who re grets
the things they’ve done.
Some times I just feel it’s on ly me who nev er the be came who they thought they’d be.
I wish I could live a lit tle more,
look up to the sky, not just the floor.
I feel like my life is flash ing by,
and all I can do is watch and cry.
I miss the air, I miss my friends, I miss my moth er; I miss it when
life was a par ty to be thrown,
but that was a mil lion years a go.
When I walk a go.
A mil lion years a go.
