about

A little Harry Nilsson-inspired ditty.

lyrics

Time for me to own up
I’m searching for the grown ups
Think they must have flown up
To the sky

Or are they hiding somewhere on the moon
I hope they come back down to earth real soon
Cos I can’t fly

Under my umbrella,
I’m a happy fella
Now that I’m a grown up
Don’t know why

But I would never swap places with you
I’m happy to simply admire the view
As you walk by

I try to live for the now and never say love doesn’t last
So then why do I talk about how the future’s a thing of the past

If you’re serving wishes
Up on empty dishes
I’ll take just the one please
That’s enough

Because I know what I want isn’t here
It’s further away than a thousand years
Oh, I could cry sometimes

These days I spend all my time
Finding my way through the mist
Please say that you’ll stay by my side
Because when you’re gone you’ll be missed
