colorful Songtext
von asiris

I wrote a letter to myself when I was nine
And I wrote about how I can′t wait to pass the time
All I wanted was to grow up
Cause I thought I'd never be enough
But now all I want is to go back in time

Ignorance and innocence are what filled up my mind
And there′s no coincidence when we lose sight of wrong and right
All those summer days we thought would never end
And when we didn't care about losing friends
Sometimes I wish my mind was still childlike

What I've learned from growing up is life ain′t as colorful
But we′ll cherish instances that are more than wonderful
And I can't go back in time and relive all the greatest highs
But it may come to your surprise
We′ve still got so much time

A part of life is losing things your love
And you'll cherish the memories they left for us
And when you think you′ll never get out of the rough
Trust in the one above


There's times I wish I could re-write the past
There′s times I wish life didn't go as fast
And I made mistakes I'm thankful that I did
Cause if i didn′t I′d be filled with ignorance

I'm looking forward to the future
But what it holds I′m not quite sure
And I wish that it was coming sooner
But I don't know what God has in store

Maybe I′m happy maybe I'm not
I may be in love or I may be distraught
Maybe I can do this as my career
Or maybe I′m broke and work on the pier
Maybe I get married
Maybe I have a family
Or maybe I have nothing
I'd still trust in the father

What I've learned from growing up is life ain′t as colorful
But we′ll cherish instances that are more than wonderful
And I can't go back in time and relive all the greatest highs
But it may come to your surprise
We′ve still got so much time


What I've learned from growing up is life ain′t as colorful
But we'll cherish instances that are more than wonderful
And I can′t go back in time and relive all the greatest highs
But it may come to your surprise
We've still got so much time
