That's How People Grow Up Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me and
Booted me and bruised and hurt me
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e120908-morrissey~thats_how_people_grow_up_lyrics.html ]
[Chorus]
But that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
[Verse 2]
I was wasting my time
Looking for love
Someone must look at me and
See their sunlit dream
I was wasting my time
Praying for love
For a love that never comes
From someone who does not exist
[Chorus]
And that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
[Bridge]
Let me live
Before I die
No not me
Not I
[Verse 3]
I was wasting my life
Always thinking about myself
Someone on their deathbed said:
"There are other sorrows, too"
I was driving my car
I crashed and broke my spine
So, yes, there are things worse in life than
Never being someone's sweetie
[Chorus]
And that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
[Chorus]
And that's how people grow up
That's how people grow up
[Outro]
As for me, I'm OK
For now, anyway
