I Just Wanted You To Get Old 歌詞

I just wanted you to get old
Like the army green Volvo and the toys we sold
Like the books that you read me and the jokes you told
I just wanted you to get old

I just wanted you to get old
Like vacations in Tahoe and your skiing poles
The ones I held onto tightly till you said let go
Oh I just wanted you to get old

And I'm sorry that I never get around
To picking up the phone or staying home

I swear to God that I must be the worst person I've found
Tell me would it be too late to appreciate you
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry

Cause I still want you to get old
Please forgive me I know it doesn't always show
But I'll try to be better if you don't let go
Oh I just want you to get old
