Your little hands wrapped around my finger, and it's so quiet in the world tonight, your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreaming, so I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light, To you, everything's funny, you got nothing to regret, I'd give all I have, honey, if you could stay like that
I walked up the hallway and knocked on her door and before she could answerer I unlocked the door and pocked my head in and said "Alexis can I talk to you sweetie." She responded "sure dad what is up?" "Well pumpkin you know how me and Kate have been dating well I was thinking of asking her to marry me are you ok with that?"
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, Just stay this little, oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple, I won't let nobody hurt you, Won't let no one break your heart, No, no one will desert you, Just try to never grow up, never grow up
dad first of all you know you love Kate and I do to but I have to ask you why did you come to my apartment in the middle of the night to ask me a question that does not directly affect me when you could call instead
You're in the car on the way to the movies, And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off, At 14, there's just so much you can't do, And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots, But don't make her drop you off around the block, Remember that she's getting older, too, and don't lose the way that you dance around, In your PJs getting ready for school
well sweetie I wanted ask you personally and I passed by on my way to the old haunt do you want to come? "sure can Ashley come? I don't want to leave at this hour without him."
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, Just stay this little, Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, It could stay this simple, Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room, Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home, Remember the footsteps, remember the words said, And all your little brother's favorite songs
yes honey guess what I am going to do at the old haunt and by the way it is not stupid I said unraveling my plan to her and Ashley
I just realized everything I have, Is someday gonna be gone, No one's ever burned you, Nothing's ever left you scarred, And even though you want to, Just try to never grow up, So here I am in my new apartment, In a big city, they just dropped me off, It's so much colder than I thought it would be, So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on, So here I am in my new apartment, In a big city, they just dropped me off, It's so much colder than I thought it would be, So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on, Wish I'd never grown up, I wish I'd never grown up, Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up, Could still be little, Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up, It could still be simple, Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, Just stay this little, Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up, It could stay this simple, Won't let nobody hurt you, Won't let no one break your heart, And even through to you want to, Please try to never grow up, Don't you ever grow up, Never grow up, Just never grow up
