Younger Me

What happens to all our friends?
I don't know, we move away
Does grandma make it to our wedding
No, we miss her every day
Do we make it, writing songs
Like we're always dreaming of
I don't know, but we don't give up

Oh (oh) dear younger me
I don't have the answers yet
I wish I was stronger
I'm not even close to where I thought I'd be
Honestly I'm still a mess
Come back when we're older

Oh dear younger me
(Younger me)
(Younger me)
Oh dear younger me
(Younger me)
(Younger me)

How can you believe in me
When all I've done is let you down
All those college entrance papers
Where you had our lives spelled out

Why do I feel so ashamed
Looking at pictures of us
What happened what have I lost?
(Oh-oh-oh)

Oh dear younger me
I don't have the answers yet
I wish I was stronger
And I'm not even close to where I thought I'd be
Honestly I'm still a mess
Come back when we're older

Oh dear younger me
Oh dear younger me
Oh dear younger me
Oh dear younger me

I wish that I could see you now
And steal some fire from your eyes
I wish that I believed in us
The way you always did and I
Wanna feel like you again
Unafraid and full of hope
Younger me where did you go?
