Jason Reeves – The Hell of Growing Up Lyrics (Nelly Joy)

Verse 1
Remember when we were rebels
Didn’t know how to be careful
Never gonna be as cool as I was with you
Sneaking out bedroom windows
Coming down backyard willows
I put my brother’s car in neutral
And led it rode

Chorus
Two kids in a Honda Civic
Pushing 20 in the limits
Sober bodies in the backseat, hearts spinning
We thought this crazy world was ending
So we weren’t scared of beginning
What we never had to finish
And we didn’t
Remember when your parents said we were too young
Maybe they were trying to save us
From the hell of growing up
The hell of growing up

Verse 2
I wish you never got that letter
Cause you were gone by September
You never gave me back my sweater
And it got cold
You told me we can work long distance
Like every other weekend visits
It didn’t really work out did it
We got old

Chorus
Two kids in a Honda Civic
Pushing 20 in the limits
Sober bodies in the backseat, hearts spinning
We thought this crazy world was ending
So we weren’t scared of beginning
What we never had to finish
And we didn’t
Remember when your parents said we were too young
Maybe they were trying to save us
From the hell of growing up

Bridge
Too fast, we’re too slow
Either stay with us forever
Or we’ll be out of here tomorrow
The hell of growing up

Chorus
Two kids in a Honda Civic
Pushing 20 in the limits
Sober bodies in the backseat, hearts spinning
We thought this crazy world was ending
So we weren’t scared of beginning
What we never had to finish
And we didn’t
Remember when your parents said we were too young
Maybe they were trying to save us
From the hell of growing up

But it felt like heaven for a minute
At least that’s how I remember it
The hell of growing
The hell of growing up
