I can't believe how fast its gone
It seems like yesterday
I was praying for rides on the merry-go-round
And picking out a bike for my birthday
Now it seems those issues were fake
And I don't know what it means
I wish it were only yesterday
When I had those fanciful dreams.
But it's gone, it's gone, it won't come back
We have to deal with it now
The teachers, the parents, the pressure of life
But I just need to figure out how
It really does seem like yesterday
It doesn't feel like I should already be sixteen
I used to dream about that day
But here I am, and the world is just so mean
When I look back on everything
I don't even look at it as me
I think of myself as quiet and studious
But I guess that wasn't meant to be.
I'm wild and crazy
I have way too much fun
All my friends are older
And I'm always on the run.
I'm happy with my life
I really really am
But I miss the childhood innocence
And the going to the farm to see my lamb
But things change, I'm growing up,
I guess that's the way it should be
But I'll always remember that little girl
And smile remembering me.
