Life in a song

So everyone knows what "Taylor Swift freaks" we are (or at least Kaelin is). Taylor Swift has a song out that is just so appropriate for where we are right now in our life. My sweet sister asked me if I had heard that song and even though we have the CD, I just had not listened to it yet. Once I did, I just wanted to start bawling like a big baby.

The song is "Never Grow Up" and it is just so sweet.

Your little hands wrapped around my finger

and it's so quiet in the world tonight

your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming

So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite nightlight

To you everything's funny

you got nothing to regret

I'd give all I have, honey

if you could stay like that

Oh darling don't you ever grow up

don't you ever grow up

just stay this little

Oh darling don't you ever grow up

don't you ever grow up

it could stay this simple

I won't let noboby hurt you

won't let no one break your heart

and no one will desert you

just try to never grow up

never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies

and you're mortified your mom's dropping you off

at 14, there's just so much you can't do

and you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots

but don't make her drop you off around the block

remember that she's getting older too

and don't lose the way that you dance around in your pj's getting ready for school

Oh darling don't you ever grow up
don't you ever grow up
just stay this little
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
don't you ever grow up
it could stay this simple
no one's ever burned you

nothing's ever left you scarred

and even though you want to

please try to never grow up

take pictures in your mind of your childhood room

memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home

remember the footsteps, remember the words said

and all your little brother's favorite songs

I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone

so here I am in my new apartment

in a big city, they just dropped me off

it's so much colder than I thought it would be

so I tuck myself in and turn my nightlight on

wish I'd never grown up

I wish Id never grown up

Oh I don't want to grow up

wish I'd never grown up

I could still be little

Oh darling don't you ever grow up

don't you ever grow up

it could still be simple

won't let noboby hurt you

won't let no one break your heart

and even though you want to

please try to never grow up

oh

don't you ever grow up

oh

never grow up

just never grow up
