Well, you grow up, pack it all up In a hand-me-down car Throw out a wave and you just can't wait For your life to start You move miles away from your parents And then you try so hard not to be like them But then it hits you one day that you miss them like hell You want nothing more than to go home again Time is like a shooting star A supernova in the dark You'd do anything to make it last But it all goes by so fast Curly hair and matchbox cars Leave the lights on 'cause you're afraid of the dark Reaching for my hand when you cross the road You are my sunshine and right now you're all mine I don't know how I'll ever let you go Time is like a shooting star A supernova in the dark You'd do anything to make it last But it all goes by so fast Be right here next to me now And we'll let this world spin 'round and 'round Kiss me and let's just talk here for a while Time is like a shooting star A supernova in the dark You'd do anything to make it last But it all goes by so fast
