I wrote this song in the middle of lockdown last year. Growing up is a funny thing, as a kid I remember yearning for my independence and willing time to pass, now I savour every moment as much as I can. This song really was inspired by a conversation I had with my dad, and I hope you love it as much...
[Verse 1]
I was talking to my dad
About the year that we've just had
'Cause time, it keeps on passing by
And I don't know how to say goodbye
I swear yesterday, I was fifteen
A teenager with hopes and dreams
I'm still the kid I used to be
But I've got responsibilities
[Chorus]
And I don't know
How to make time go slow
I feel the same but all around me
Everything's changed
I never see a moment 'til it's over
I'm too busy trying to grow up
I forgot I'm getting older
[Verse 2]
All those laughs I thought were build to last
Are now more fragment of my past
It's funny thinking 'bout the ways life
Could've been if we haven't changed
Some day i'll see my parents die
The thought alone makes me cry
Now I say I love you twice as much
'Cause you never know when time is up
[Chorus]
And I don't know
How to make time go slow
I feel the same but all around me
Everything's changed
I never see a moment 'til it's over
I'm too busy trying to grow up
I forgot I'm getting older
