Lori McKenna Lyrics
Grown Up Now Lyrics
Written & performed by Lori McKenna
(for her eldest son)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
It�s a big mean world.
How many times I�ve told you
That if you don�t believe in magic
The meaner it will seem.
May my mistakes
Be the biggest ones you�ve shouldered.
Make your dreams triumph
My dreams�
You still never cease to amaze me.
You�ve made yourself some plans
And you�ve got somewhere to go.
Our time together these days is (?)engaging(?)
I just wish we could all age slow�
But you�re a grown up now,
Grown up now.
Grown up now,
And your future looks so bright.
Every now and then
You still look like a baby.
Most of the time you�re still
the best damn thing in my whole life.
And I�ll never give you half
of what you gave me.
I think it�s fair to say
�Kid, you taught me right��
Cause you�re a grown up now,
Grown up now.
Grown up now,
And the future looks so bright.
So bright,
so bright�
And there�s a picture of me when I was younger
Sittin� on a picnic table
With the same eyes that you have now.
And then I had you and your brothers
And we were just babies.
So I sure don�t know how
You�re a grown up now.
That you�re a grown up now,
Grown up now.
You�re a grown up now,
And your future looks so bright.
Oh so bright, so bright.
So bright, so bright.
So bright, so bright�...
Your future looks so bright.
