I used to run around the cul-de-sac White sneakers and a Sunday dress Till my neighbor shot it down real quick If only Julia was an optimist Now every time I wear my Sunday best I'm always tryna fit the newest trend Just to prove that I'm still relevant Am I relevant? It's funny how life can make amends Through all the thick and thin But in the end, I know That's just the way it goes, just the way it goes I used to lie awake all night Dreamed so high I never stopped falling Twenty-something, how'd the time fly by? I hit the ground, I never did notice Could someone tell me where I lost my stride? Lost my sight, oh, my soul's been searching Now I'm staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions My parents told me I was good enough Said I was beautiful the way I was But sometimes indecision has no end And you can't help it when you second-guess Too young to love, too hard to trust Need to grow up Now you're 21 and you're asking Dear, where's your plus one? It's funny how life can make amends Through all the thick and thin But in the end, I know That's just the way it goes, just the way it goes I used to lie awake all night Dreamed so high I never stopped falling Twenty-something, how'd the time fly by? I hit the ground, I never did notice Could someone tell me where I lost my stride? Lost my sight, oh, my soul's been searching Now I'm staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions Ha, ha, ha, ha (yeah) Ha, ha (mm) Ha, ha, ha, ha (yeah) Ha, ha (mm, mm) Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground This future's too bright for you to sit down Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground This future's too bright for you to sit down Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground This future's too bright for you to sit down Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground This future's too bright for you to sit down
