Lyrics
0:20I was ten years old when I realized
0:24Some goodbyes are forever
0:28So what's that mean for you and I
0:33I thought we'd always be together
0:38How can the person who taught me to breathe
0:43Take their last breath right in front of me
0:50I know too much now
0:55I wish I could still see the world through those eyes
1:05Could still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright
1:11Oh the older we get the colors they faint
1:17Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue's here to stay
1:21So I wish I wish
1:30I remember seeing my dad cry
1:35For the first time we were downstairs
1:39Talkin' 'bout how his dad died
1:43And how he wished he could've been there
1:47He said How could the person who taught me to breathe
1:53Take their last breath not in front of me
2:00I know too much now
2:05I wish I could still see the world through those eyes
2:12I still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright
2:22Oh the older we get the colors they change
2:27Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue stays the same
2:31Oh I wish I wish
2:41Stay a little longer
2:46I'm not ready for you to go
2:50It hasn't even happened
2:54But I have been mourning since ten years old
2:59Stay a little longer
3:02I wish I could still see the world through those eyes
3:11Could still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright
3:19Oh the older we get the colors they change
3:24Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue's here to stay
3:28So I wish I wish
I was ten years old when I realized Some goodbyes are forever So what's that mean for you and I I thought we'd always be together How can the person who taught me to breathe Take their last breath right in front of me I know too much now I wish I could still see the world through those eyes Could still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright Oh the older we get the colors they faint Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue's here to stay So I wish I wish I remember seeing my dad cry For the first time we were downstairs Talkin' 'bout how his dad died And how he wished he could've been there He said How could the person who taught me to breathe Take their last breath not in front of me I know too much now I wish I could still see the world through those eyes I still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright Oh the older we get the colors they change Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue stays the same Oh I wish I wish Stay a little longer I'm not ready for you to go It hasn't even happened But I have been mourning since ten years old Stay a little longer I wish I could still see the world through those eyes Could still see the colors but they're not as clear or as bright Oh the older we get the colors they change Yeah hair turns to grey but the blue's here to stay So I wish I wish
