Man That I’ll Miss

[Verse 1]
All I ever wanted was
To be the things that I was not
When I tried to touch the stars
My arms were never long enough
I didn't care, 'cause it felt like I was gettin' there
All the summer nights that I would stare up
As I wondered what's out there
But growing up ain't what I thought it would be, nah

[Chorus]
I'm getting older, I miss the days
When there was so much time left to waste
It isn't over, there's still a chance
That this is the man that I'll miss, and one day I'll say
Come back to me, come back to me
Come back to me, come back to me
Come back to me, come back to me
If I still have a childhood wish, make me the man that I'll miss

[Verse 2]
If I wrote a thousand songs
I still don't think I'd understand
Even if you sang along
Louder than what's in my head
I wanna know why it feels so good to be alone
To be so damn small that I can let go
Of the fear that I'm not great
Man, growing up ain't what I thought it would be, nah

[Chorus]
I'm getting older, I miss the days
When there was so much time left to waste
It isn't over, there's still a chance
That this is the man that I'll miss, and one day I'll say
Come back to me, come back to me
Come back to me, come back to me
Come back to me, come back to me
If I still have a childhood wish, make me the man that I'll miss

[Outro]
The Devil can fly, what's down below
Everything I need to know
This is how we find a home
This is how we find a home, yeah
Yeah, I don't have to wake up
This is where the fun starts
We are, we are
We are, we are
We are, we are
Dream on, dream on
We are, we are
Mm-mm, mm-mm
