"Grow Apart" lyrics - GABBY BARRETT
Now you hear it all the time
"Ten years down the drain"
People signin' dotted lines
All 'cause they drifted away
"But that'll never be us"
Well, that's easy to say
'Cause we're crazy in love
But at some point, so were they
[Pre-Chorus:]
I guess even when you know, when you know
There's still a whole lot that you don't
[Chorus:]
I ain't afraid of growin' up
Ain't nobody just stays young
Ain't afraid to put some roots in the ground
Watch 'em grow into hummingbird lilies in the yard
I ain't afraid of growin' old
Hair goin' all gray from gold
Ain't a growin' pain that can break my heart
Long as we never grow apart
Lines on my face gettin' deeper
Nah, that ain't one of my fears
It's wakin' up with a stranger
That I've been with for years
[Pre-Chorus:]
So, baby, hold me
Never stop tryin' to get to know me
[Chorus:]
'Cause I ain't afraid of growin' up
Ain't nobody just stays young
Ain't afraid to put some roots in the ground
Watch 'em grow into hummingbird lilies in the yard
I ain't afraid of growin' old
Hair goin' all gray from gold
Ain't a growin' pain that can break my heart
Long as we never grow apart
[Bridge:]
Baby, hold me
Never stop tryin' to get to know me
Fight with me, try with me
Never be too strong to cry with me
Pray with me, stay with me
Even when I push you away from me
Look at me, really look at me
Tell me that you love me every day
[Chorus:]
I ain't afraid of growin' up
Ain't nobody just stays young
Ain't afraid to put some roots in the ground
Watch 'em grow into hummingbird lilies in the yard
I ain't afraid of growin' old
Hair goin' all gray from gold
Ain't a growin' pain that can break my heart
Long as we never grow apart
[Outro:]
Baby, hold me
Never stop tryin' to get to know (We never grow apart, no)
Fight with me, try with me
Never be too strong to cry with me
Pray with me, stay with me (Oh, yeah)
Even when I push you away from me (Oh)
Look at me, really look at me
Tell me that you love me every day (Love me every day)
