I had dreams of Madison Square Garden
I put my heart out on my sleeve
Knew all the things that I could be
And I believed I was only getting started
And I was young, perhaps naive but I was free
And all these kids say when they grow up
They want to be builders or astronauts
But when I grow up
I just want to see colour in the sky
When I grow up
I'll get over the fears that cloud my mind
When I grow up I want to move out
Of these four walls I built with doubt
When I grow up
I won't give up
I have dreams but it's so hard to see them
When all these voices in my head
Are trying to keep me in my bed
And I believe that I'm where I'm supposed to be
And I'd feel better if I could just break free
And all these kids say when they grow up
They want to be builders or astronauts
But when I grow up
I just want to see colour in the sky
When I grow up
I'll get over the fears that cloud my mind
When I grow up I want to move out
Of these four walls I built with doubt
When I grow up
I won't give up
When I grow up maybe I could be a superhero
Maybe I could find a way to break these chains
I could leave it all behind just fly away
When I grow up maybe I could really let my fears go
Maybe I could find a way to live for me
Let my insecurities just melt away
When I grow up
I just want to see colour in the sky
When I grow up
I get over the fears that cloud my mind
When I grow up I want to move out
Of these four walls I built with doubt
When I grow up
I won't give up
When I grow up
