Lyrics for We Grew Up A Little Bit by Harry Chapin:
| | | Artist: | Harry Chapin |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | We Grew Up A Little Bit | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 81 | | | | Lyrics: | We got married early
And just a little bit late
Baby came too early
But some things just
can't wait
We were just beginning
But it was very clear
We grew up a little bit that
year
I caught on as a meter man
You were caught at home
When I started night
school
You ended up alone
But you had another baby
While I had my career
And we grew
up a little bit
We grew up a little bit
We grew up a little bit that year
They put
me in a office job
A young man on the move
We bought a house in Shaker Heights
You
supervised the move
We were cashing checks, you were changing children
While I played
engineer
And we were growing ever faster
Every year
I got bored of
kilowatts
You were tired of kids
I started staying out at night
And soon that's what you
did
At parties we'd go seperately
You'd wiggle and I'd leer
And we were growing
faster
We were growing ever faster
We were growing ever faster every year
You
learned to live in silence
I learned to live in lies
And we both igored the empty
spaces
Growing in our eyes
Your breath became a gin and tonic
Mine became a beer
And
we grew up a little more last year
Today at work they passed me by
And promoted John
instead
I came home to find you'd wrecked the car
I guess I lost my head
Well, I can't
believe I hit you
But the rage came on so strong
Ah, where did we go wrong?
As you
sit there crying
I wonder who you are
The partner-stranger-friend and foe
Who's come
with me this far
We stand here in the ashes
And I guess it is quite clear
We did not
really grow too much
Each year
