Arlissa - Getting Older

Lyrics:

tell me did my whole life
flash in front of my own eyes
there's so much that I didn't try
and next year I'll be 25

don't know how to be alone
I'm too busy on my phone
there's so much that I don't know
didn't learn the piano

and don't you think it's crazy
time we're wasting
don't remember it
and I don't wanna spend my life the way my father did
he said one day you'll blink and it'll all be over with

I'm missing every moment
but all I really know is

these days I'm moving way too fast
don't tell me I'm getting older (x2)
time fades the memories I have
don't tell me I'm getting older (x2)

missed your birthday last weekend
cos I couldn't get time off
and you know how much work costs
and now all of the times lost

she said I'm such a bad friend
I guess that's what I deserve
cos I always put me first
is it too late to reverse

and don't you think it's crazy
time we're wasting
don't remember it
and I don't wanna spend my life the way my father did
he said one day you'll blink and it'll all be over with

I'm missing every moment
but all I really know is

these days I'm moving way too fast
don't tell me I'm getting older (x2)
time fades the memories I have
don't tell me I'm getting older (x2)

these days I'm moving way too fast
don't tell me I'm getting older (x2)
