Verse 1
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
and it's so quiet in the world tonight
your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreamin'
so I tuck you in, turn on your favorite nightlight
I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Till the landslide brought me down
Pre-Chorus
To you, everything's funny,
You've got nothing to regret.
I'd give all I have honey
if you could stay like that.
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my li - i - fe?
Chorus
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
don't you ever grow up
just stay this little.
Oh, darlin' dont you ever grow up,
dont you ever grow up
It could stay this simple.
I won't let nobody hurt you,
won't let no one break your heart,
yeah, no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up.
Well, I've been afraid of changing 'cause I've
Built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
And I'm getting older too
Bridge
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room,
memorise what it sounded like when our parents get home.
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said,
and know your older sister's favourite songs.
You just realised everything you have
is someday gonna be gone.
Verse
So here you are in your new apartment,
Climbed a mountain and you turned around
It's so much colder than you thought it would be,
Till the landslide brought you down
Pre-Chorus
...Wish I'd never grown up
Chorus
Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
wish I'd never grown up,
I could still be little.
Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
wish I'd never grown up,
It could still be simple.
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
don't you ever grow up,
just stay this little.
Oh, darlin' dont you ever grow up,
dont you ever grow up
It could stay this simple.
I won't let nobody hurt you,
won't let no one break your heart,
And even though you want to,
please try to never grow up.

Till the landslide brought me down
