| Verse 1 |
| I was a wayward child With the weight of the world That I held deep inside Life was a winding road And I learned many things Little ones shouldn't know |
| Chorus 1 |
|
But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still I feel like that child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon |
| Verse 2 |
| Funny how one can learn To grow numb to the madness And block it away I left the worst unsaid Let it all dissipate And I try to forget |
| Chorus 2 |
|
As I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still I feel like that child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon |
| Bridge |
| Nearing the edge Oblivious I almost Fell right over A part of me Will never be quite able To feel stable That woman-child falling inside Was on the verge of fading Thankfully I Woke up in time |
| Verse 3 |
|
Guardian angel I Sail away on an ocean With you by my side Orange clouds roll by They burn into your image And you're still alive (You're always alive) |
| Chorus 3 |
| As I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still I feel like that child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon |
