Lyrics

Leaves are falling now 
Another Tuesday afternoon 
We talk and laugh over tea
And say goodbye too soon
Oh I’m changing, nothing seems
To make sense anymore 
I call you crying in the rain 
And everything’s okay once more 

You tell me when I’m older I’ll be wiser 
And it’ll all work out in time 
I hate to be impatient 
I know being me is just fine  

But I want to paint colors with my words like you do
And I want the sun to come out when I smile too

No my garden’s not yet beautiful like yours
My spring hasn’t weathered winters storm 
And I know growing up takes time to do 
But I wish I was beautiful as you 

As you-youuuu
You-youuuu

So tell me how to wear my hair 
Let me try on your clothes 
Show me how to be like you
Tell me everything you know

You tell me when I’m older I’ll be wiser 
And it’ll all work out in time 
I hate to be impatient 
I know being me is just fine 

But I want to paint colors with my words like you do
And I want the sun to come out when I smile too

No my garden’s not yet beautiful like yours
My spring hasn’t weathered winters storm 
And I know growing up takes time to do 
But I wish I was beautiful as you 
As you

(Instrumental)

No my garden’s not yet beautiful like yours
My spring hasn’t weathered winters storm 
But some day I’ll be grown up too 
And I’ll be beautiful like you

as you

Don’t know if this is too forward 
Or too long overdue 
But I can’t spend another second of my life overthinking you 

Don’t want to be too blunt
But I can’t hold in the truth 
And if it all goes down in flames at least I’ll know that I was true 

Don’t know how to say this 
But your smile leaves me breathless
And I could look at you all day  
And not in a friend kind of way

And I don’t care if it’s too forward 
Cause it’s way overdue 
And every time I sit down to write 
All my songs are somehow about you 

So I guess I’ll just say it
Cause what’s the point of waiting 
I really really
Like you
