Growing Up

Photograph, remembering in the summer
It takes me back,
To Southern California.
Where the girls would all pass
On the boardwalk and laugh
At our desperate attempts and our sunburned backs
We never had a chance, I remember that
And no matter what we do,
Well never lose what we had growing up.
Won't bring us down.
Yeah, growing up,
It won't bring us down,
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
Graduate, whats a kid to do now?
Get away, yeah-ah.
Weve got so much to prove.
Cause its time to move on
And I'm stuck to let go,
But then Wonderwall comes on the radio,
I flashback to the night in your parents yard,
When we drank too much and we talked about God...
Growing up, wont bring us down.
Growing up, it wont bring us down.
Were in this together,
Yeah, well make it somehow,
Nothings gonna stop us now...
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
Growing up won't bring us down
oh-oh-oh
Photograph, oh give me something to remember
Growing up, wont bring us down.
Growing up, it wont bring us down.
Were in this together,
Yeah, well make it somehow,
Nothings gonna stop us now...
Growing up wont bring us down
Growing up wont bring us down (won't bring us down)
Growing up wont bring us down (won't bring us down)
Growing up wont bring us....... down.
