Growing Up;

Surrounding ourselves in midnight sighs

We'll laugh and then we'll touch thighs

Cause we can't be concerned with goodbyes

And we won't apologize

We're still children at heart

But soon enough we'll drift apart

And soon enough I'll depart

And find a new start

Wish it could forever be this midnight

But soon the sun will show its light

But I think that we'll be alright

Even if growing up gives us a fright

But you said we wouldn't grow up, you swore

And yet it's happening now for sure

We're just shells of what we were before

Wish we could be young once more

As the sun grows up in the sky

I just want to sing a lullaby

Because I don't want to say goodbye

Wish all this we could just deny

Truthfully, I think we'll be okay

But I'm still afraid to walkaway

When I just wish for yesterday

But neither will I overstay

Surrounding ourselves in midnight sighs

We'll laugh and then we'll touch thighs

Cause soon we'll have to say goodbye

And we just can't deny

Wonderful.
My fav. lines: "soon the sun will show its light
But I think that we'll be alright
Even if growing up gives us a fright" .. these lines having so much depth in it. In reality, whatever you pen`d always happened to each and every loving soul. Sun gets up. Moon gets up. Lights get lighten up. Fire gets denied. More hunger of darkness comes along the shades of grey and by the end, "childhood" went away. Nice imagery!
