[Intro]
[Verse]
I used to sleep away the mornings
Couldn t wait till the sun went down
The weekend was always calling
I couldn t wait to get myself downtown
Mum and dad would try to reach me
I was too busy to take their calls
I say I can talk tomorrow, but I never did and that s
nothing new at all
But those days are long gone now
[Chorus]
And you wake up a little older
Your babies lying on your shoulder and just like that
everything has changed
You can t stop time, days will always roll on by and before
you know it you realise nothing stays the same
If I could tell my younger self I d say don t wish it all away
[Verse]
From gettin muddy in the backyard, to letting me teach you how to play guitar
I ll be there when your heart breaks and watch you take a drive in your first car
I often think if you ll be like me drivin out the gate when you turn 18
You probably think it s going slowly but don t move too fast
cause things will all work out but I m worrying about right now
[Chorus]
You wake up a little older you re teenage crying on your
shoulder and just like that everything has changed
You can t stop time days will always roll on by and before
you know it you realise nothing stays the same
If i could tell my younger self i d say don t wish it all away
[Bridge]
Cause just like that it s moments you can t get back
So don t wish it all away
Yeah
Ohohoo
Ohohoo
[Chorus]
You wake up a little older you re hoping that your kids come
over and just like that everything has changed
Can t stop time days will always roll on by and before you
know it you realise nothing stays the same
If I could tell my younger self I d say
even though life goes so fast it s all ok but don t wish it all away
[Outro]
Ohhh yeah
Don t wish it all away
