You

I'm used to your arms around me

And now I hold my own arms when I sleep

I miss the small things that had slipped my mind before.

Like in the sun your eyes turn from brown to gold

And when I'm around you I don't feel so old

I still see myself as just a stupid kid,

But they want me to grow up

And they made me get a car

When I made it into college,

My dad said "kid you're going far",

But What if I'm not ready?

I still need a bit more time

I feel like I'm going crazy

Trying to keep up and survive.

We went to different colleges

And even though you had said

You'd wait for me, I knew it was a lie

Because, oh how could you deny

A shy brunette with dark jade eyes?

I wish I could have realized 

before it was too late 

and cleaned the slate,

I should have slammed the brakes;

And switched you from people to talk about,

To people to do without...

But they want me to grow up

And they made me get a car

When I made it into college,

My dad said "kid you're going far",

But What if I'm not ready?

I still need a bit more time

I feel like I'm going crazy

Trying to keep up and survive.

I've got a roommate,

And I've made some friends,

But sleeping in a dorm room

Isn't sleeping in my bed

And I pretend that I don't care

That you're fine without me

But I'm torn up about you so much that I can't even sleep...

But they want me to grow up

And they made me get a car

When I made it into college,

My dad said "kid you're going far",

But What if I'm not ready?

I still need a bit more time

I feel like I'm going crazy

Without you by my side.

I feel like I'm going crazy without you by my side.

I still need you to make me feel alive.
