Kid Astray - Not a Kid Anymore lyrics

[Verse 1] Looking back to those days So naive and so embraced Thought that dance could make it rain Having a childish view Of the world that surrounded you Everything in it felt so huge [Pre-Chorus 1] The only worry that you got was to get home before the dark Put on your running shoes and make it back in time But you'll never be a kid again Nothing will make you feel the same Maybe it's time you finally change that point of view [Chorus] You keep going on about how you're never, ever gonna go home Oh, no, can't come running back now that you're on your own You know that you've grown out of us and you've been dying to go, so long Mother, don't you see, I'm not a kid anymore [Verse 2] Calm in the summer heat Felt the gra** beneath your feet Now everything feels so incomplete Stuck in a photograph and it won't release you It has frozen a moment you won't ever see again [Pre-Chorus 2] There's so many colors in the white How can you see what's wrong or right Seems too hard and you just don't know what to do No longer time to be at ease You can't survive the memories You were oblivious to what you thought you knew [Chorus] (x2) You keep going on about how you're never, ever gonna go home Oh, no, can't come running back now that you're on your own You know that you've grown out of us and you've been dying to go, so long Mother, don't you see, I'm not a kid anymore
