lyrics

I get nervous when the girls dress in their summer clothes and anxious when the boys where all them button ups and sports jackets.

I wore a T-shirt to a family party, everybody overreacted.

There comes a point when hiding out in all them haunted hallways and hidden staircases , don’t make you feel like a grown woman anymore.

And it’s true, and I’m sorry.

You can feel it, you can see it in your hands and eyebrows. You aint a kid now, but mama don’t you wish you could. Lay out that summer sun just getting freckles on your daddy’s Chevrolet car hood.

Ooh there comes a point, when spinning ‘round and walking sideways and taking ten paces don’t make you feel like it’s your birthday anymore.

And it’s true, and I’m sorry.

And I’m talking about my love, it’s not what you’re thinking of. Woah…

Let’s throw a party! Somebody’s turning thirty. Ooh and we aint looked this good, sing we don’t even know since when.

Let’s throw a party! I finally made some money. Ooh, and can you dig it baby? I finally dig myself again.

Oooh my love! (My love!) Talking about my love! (My love!) Talking about my love! (My love!)

And it’s true, and I’m sorry!

Where does it go? As we grow old? Fighting for time, finding what’s mine.
