The Growing Up Years
I was a runner not a player
I was a quitter not a stayer
Never understood my youthful years
And I caused a lot of tears
My heart never meant to hurt a soul
It was my head I couldn't control
Took many years for me to see
What was broke and set it free
In my head, I'd open a gate
Telling myself, it's not too late
How could I just settle in
Put all my feelings in one bin
Age has made me realize
In my youth, I was far from wise
