Pack your bags and hug your mom
Been dreaming bout leaving for so long
You start to cry as you crank the truck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing upFixin' up your brand new place
First day in, something breaks
Dad ain't there to get you unstuck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing upThat's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to find where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing upIt starts out as a single day
For too long, he's your everything
Until he leaves you standing in a cloud of dust
Yeah, that's the downside of growing upThat's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to find where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing upI know what you're feeling
Yeah, I understand
Cause where you are is where I've been
Where I still amAnd I'm alright, I'm okay
Yeah, I know I'll find my way
On the road I gotta take to get where I'm going
And I'm gonna twist, I'm gonna turn
But it's how I'm gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing upA lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing upYeah
