Mama hold my hand I don't understand Why I have to grow up I want to go back To the days of the tooth fairy The world can be so scary At times I want to be back by your side Everything is changing The rug was swept under my feet Losing familiar faces The silence deafened by my heartbeat 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Just breathe I can start to see myself in the moonlight reflection on the Dead Sea I know he's there I know she's there I know he's there I know you're all there I'll join you someday But I'm already freezing up And only my toes are in the water You don't learn to swim, you just learn to give up Mama hold my hand I don't understand Why I have to grow up I want to go back To the days of the tooth fairy The world can be so scary At times I want to be back by your side
