Eighteen Songtext

von Richard Fleeshman

I wanna drive up to my old house driveway
Take a walk around my old bedroom
Let the laughter and the memories surround me
I wonder if they love it like I used to

Do, do, do, do, do
Where did the time go
Do, do, do ,do, do
The little boy in the photos

Why can't it all just be like yesterday
I'd be a lifetime away from 18
Just sat by a window, playing song on the radio
Where did that time go
Won't someone tell me

It's like my childhood just ran out my last birthday
Now I've got all these responsibilities
I'm still young but I'm old enough to know that
I'm still meeting the man that's turning into me

Do, do, do, do, do
Where did the time go
Do, do, do ,do, do
The little boy in the photos

Why can't it all just be like yesterday
I'd be a lifetime away from 18
Just sat by a window, playing song on the radio
Where did that time go
Won't someone tell me

And now the neon London lights they all surround me
Busy streets full of faces I don't know
Wanna tear the hands on the clock and turn them backwards
Go to familiar places I call home

Do, do, do, do, do
Where did the time go
Do, do, do ,do, do
The little boy in the photos

Why can't it all just be like yesterday
I'd be a lifetime away from 18
Just sat by a window, playing song on the radio
Where did that time go
Won't someone tell me
