When I Grow Up

Been thinking maybe I was wiser when I was young and life was innocent A mustache from my Kool-Aid You could fix my whole world with a Band-aid Got me thinking 'bout what Jesus said About the simple faith of little kids They've got the keys to the kingdom The more I live the more I wanna be one of them

When I grow up I wanna be a child again 'Til my faith feels like I'm walking home with my best friend In the light of a summertime that never ends When I grow up I wanna be a child again I wanna be a child again

No time for holding on to bitterness Why do that when we could play instead 'Cause who needs more drama When the living room floor is lava Kicking clouds on the playground swing Never thought I had to prove a thing I had the keys to the kingdom I let 'em go but he told me where to find them

When I grow up I wanna be a child again (a child again) 'Til my faith feels like I'm walking home With my best friend (with my best friend) In the light of a summertime that never ends When I grow up I wanna be a child again I wanna be a child again (I wanna be, wanna be a child again) I wanna be a child again (I wanna be, wanna be a child again)

Bring me back to A, B, C's and my 1, 2, 3's Curiosity times infinity Trusting somebody was always watching over me Fill me up with the wonder So every day I get a little bit younger

When I grow up I wanna be a child again (a child again) Where life feels like I'm walking home With my best friend (with my best friend) In the light of a summertime that never ends When I grow up I wanna be a child again I wanna be a child again (I wanna be, I wanna be a child again) I wanna be a child again (I wanna be, I wanna be a child again) I wanna be a child again (I wanna be, I wanna be a child again) I wanna be (I wanna be, I wanna be a child again)
