EAST RICH - GROWN UPS Lyrics

When I was 16
The first time you kissed me
I didn't want it to end
We were young back then
I didn't know the difference
Between a boy and a man

We all want somebody to hold
Someone we can call our own
One look and you stole my soul

But she said when we grow up and we don't need grown ups
We'll make a life for us by ourself
And the memories hold them
But baby I told ya, I'm gonna keep them all to myself

Then I put a Walmart ring right there on your hand
It wasn't too special but it's all we had
You was my girl and I was your man
Then I wrote your name right there in the sand
The words "I love you" right next to it
When I looked down girl there you went
Then the years go by and I'm on my own
Still think about you when I'm all alone
Look how we've grown

But she said when we grow up and we don't need grown ups
We'll make a life for us by ourself
And the memories hold them
'Cause baby I told ya, I'm gonna keep them all to myself

But now that we've grown up
It's hard to be a grown up
And watch you have a life with someone else
The memories show up
It's hard for me to close'em
But I know that I'm hurting myself

But she said when we grow up and we don't need grown ups
We'll make a life for us by ourself
And the memories hold them
'Cause baby I told ya, I'm gonna keep them all to myself
