Every night  I dream  the same  dream
Of  getting older  and older  all the time
I  ask you now, what  does this  mean?
Are  these problems just  in my mind?
Things  are easy when  you're a  child
But  now these pressures  have dropped  on my head
The  length I've gone are  just long  miles
Would  they be  shorter if  I were dead?
Every time  I look  in my past
I  always wish  I was  there
I  wish my youth  would forever  last
Why  are these times  so unfair?
Look  at my friends  and see  what they've  done
Ask  myself  why they've  had to change
I  like them  better when  they were  young
Now  all these times are  rearranged
I  look down  and stand  there and  cry
Nothing ever will  be the same
The  sun is rising, now  I ask why?
The  clouds now fall  and here  comes the rain
Every time  I look  in my past
I  always wish  I was  there
I  wish my youth  would forever  last
Why  are these times  so unfair?
Every night  I dream  the same  dream
Of  getting older  and older  all the time
I  ask you now, what  does this  mean?
Are  these problems just  in my mind?
Things  are easy when  you're a  child
But  now these pressures  have dropped  on my head
The  length I've gone are  just long  miles
Would  they be  shorter if  I were dead?
Every time  I look  in my past
I  always wish  I was  there
I  wish my youth  would forever  last
Why  are these times  so unfair??
