I thought gardens were amusement parks
Spider webs were works of art
And war was just
Another game we played
Time just sent me off to bed
Love was just a word we said
I thought someone would always keep me safe
And that I might become an astronaut some day
Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right
Between the downfalls and the deepest pains
Lessons learned the hardest ways
I hope, that there was something left to save
So I went back
To try and find the innocence I left behind
And realized my paradise was paved
Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right
The cost of being wild and free
The endless possibilities
The open road in front of me
It’s harder than I thought it’d be
Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right
