Lyrics
When you're my age I hope the world is kinder than it seems to be right now And I hope the front page isn't just a reminder Of how we keep letting each other down When I was your age, things didn't seem to be this hard Riding bikes out on the street, playing tag in the back yard You'll outgrow your shoes You'll outgrow your bed You'll outgrow this house Just don't forget When you're all grown up But you don't feel that way You're still gonna be my baby Even when you're my age When you're my age You'll still be full of questions that I wish I had the answers to right now Those dark times might make you second guess it But I bet love will still be making the world go round When I was your age, I didn't worry like I think you do Back then innocence was something you could hold onto You'll outgrow your shoes You'll outgrow your bed You'll outgrow this house Just don't forget When you're all grown up But you don't feel that way You're still gonna be my baby Even when you're my age When you have kids someday, I hope you teach them the Lord's Prayer Before they go to bed at night Like my daddy did for me and his mother before him Well something about it just keeps you right And I hope you don't work too much overtime So you can be right there beside them when they close their little eyes Cause they'll outgrow their shoes They'll outgrow their beds They'll outgrow that house And you can't stop it Life will line your face Time will turn the page But they're still gonna be your babies Just like you're still gonna be my baby Even when you're my age Even when you're my age
