Liz Lawrence - When I Was Younger Lyrics

When I was younger
I told my mother
"I say, one day I'm gonna make you proud"

Now that I'm older
It's so much harder
To say those words out loud

You're growing taller
A little smarter
And one day you're gonna leave home
Oh, will you look like your mother's father
Oh, when you are fully grown?

Ooh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh

When I was younger, I asked my father
"Why are we so human?"
Now that I'm older
I think I figured it out
We're just doing what we can

Ooh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh

'Cause I won't, I won't let you down
I won't let you, I won't
I won't let you down
Oh now
I won't, I won't let you down
I won't let you, I won't
I won't let you down

When I was younger, I told my mother
"I say, one day I'm gonna make you proud"
