[Verse 1]
When I was younger, had no fear of getting older
Now it's creeping up on me
Like a sleeve that slowly rise up on your arms
Climb in the bed, I hold the hands of pretty strangers
All so I can keep pretending
It's the feeling of my mother's loving arms

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't I make the same mistakes the way I used to?
No one to tie up my shoe laces like they used to?
When did they let go of my hands?
Don't they understand, oh I, oh, I

[Chorus]
I I don't want to live like a grown up anymore
I I feel so lost and lonely, can I go back home?
Home, why can't I go back homе?
My keys won't fit the door
Why can't I go back home? Homе

[Verse 2]
Now that I'm older, oh the realization's cold
If you need someone to lean on
Everybody's got a problem of their own
I call my father in the hopes of finding comfort
When we talk about our week
We both make believe that we don't feel alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't I make the same mistakes the way I used to?
No one to tie up my shoe laces like they used to?
When did they let go of my hands?
Don't they understand, oh I, oh, I

[Chorus]
I, I don't want to live like a grown up anymore
I, I feel so lost and lonely, can I go back home?
Ohh, why can't I go back home?
My keys won't fit the door
Why can't I go back home? Home

[Outro]
Home, I wanna go back home
My keys won't fit the door
I wanna go back home, home
