Younger spitting image of me. Reflection follow slow but surely.
3 years behind, so you'll grow up to a better me.
I wish I knew, what I know now. I got this far, and I donât know how.
Up in the highs. Down in the lows. Iâll let you know, this is how Iâve grown.
These are the good days.
Donât grow up too quick.
I will admit, you are a better than I'll ever be.
Learn from my mistakes. Guard your heart; I heard it breaks.
Thrown to the wolves. A hard head, and thatâs what youâll earn
Sometimes it takes the hard way to learn.
I hope you get out by the skin of your teeth
Then Iâll be standing here when you come limping home.
I will admit, you are a better than I will ever be.
Learn from my mistakes. Guard your heart; I heard it breaks.
Thrown to the wolves, A hard head and thatâs what youâll earn.
Sometimes it takes the hard way to learn.
Stand up tall and look me in the eye
And at that point I canât say you didnât try.
Let it all just sink in. (These are the good days)
Donât grow up too quick. (These are the good old days)
