Smoking won't seem so cool
That little white church won't feel so big
This town won't look so small
As soon as you ain't still a kid
That high school hall won't be so long
You won't wanna get down it so fast
Working a Saturday won't kill you
And Friday night won't be all you have
You'll understand when you're older
And get out there on your own
How time really flies, it ain't fair
You don't see it till you're grown
You don't see it till you're grown
You don't see it till you're grown
Your daddy's hands won't feel so rough
And his fuse won't seem so short
Running away won't look like a cure
To anything that really hurts
That breakup ain't gonna break you
It's gonna sting a while, no doubt
That tattoo will be stupid
You'll thank your lucky stars that you chickened out
You'll understand when you're older
And have children of your own
How time really flies, it ain't fair
You don't see it till you're grown
You don't see it till you're grown
You don't see it till you're grown
Smoking won't seem so cool
Drinking in a parking lot won't be fun
Time moves faster than you think
You just can't see it when you're young
The lyrics TILL YOU'RE GROWN of LORI MCKENNA is also present in the album The balladeer (2020)
