That's How People Grow Up Lyrics - Years Of Refusal - Morrissey

I was wasting my time 

Trying to fall in love 

Disappointment came to me and 

Booted me and bruised and hurt me 

That's how people grow up 

That's how people grow up 

I was wasting my time 

Looking for love 

Someone must look at me 

And see their sunlit dream

I was wasting my time 

Praying for love 

For a love that never comes from 

Someone who does not exist and 

That's how people grow up 

That's how people grow up 

Let me live before I die 

Not me, not I 

I was wasting my life 

Always thinking about myself 

Someone on their deathbed said 

"There are other sorrows too" 

I was driving my car 

I crashed and broke my spine 

So yes, there are things worse in life than 

Never being someone's sweetie

That's how people grow up 

That's how people grow up 

That's how people grow up 

That's how people grow up 

As for me I'm okay 

For now anyway
