[Verse 1]
Amy, go put your shoes on
Oh, what's taking you so long?
I've been waiting out here
I've got to be back home at five
Riding on our bicycles
You and me against the world
You hated this neighborhood
Couldn't wait 'til you grow up

[Pre-Chorus]
Show me how you put on makeup
Talking to the boys in school
You just wanna be a woman
I just wanna be like you

[Chorus]
I know that you and I, we
Went on with our lives
But if you look up to the sky, once in a while
You should come back to me
I know that you and I, we
Went on with our lives
But if you look up to the sky, once in a while
You should come back to me
[Verse 2]
Amy, you grew up too fast (Too fast)
I think I could understand
There's nothing out here for you
Not even me, I know that too
You had all the biggest dreams
Too out of reach for me
Out there, you're doing your thing (Oh-oh)
Just don't forget about me

[Pre-Chorus]
Show me how you put on makeup (Yeah)
Talking to the boys in school
You just wanna be a woman
I just wanna be like you

[Chorus]
I know that you and I, we
Went on with our lives
But if you look up to the sky, once in a while
You should come back to me
I know that you and I, we
Went on with our lives
But if you look up to the sky, once in a while
You should come back to me
[Outro]
I guess it's something you always knew about
Some things don't last forever
Some things don't last forever, yeah
Some things don't last forever
(No, some things don't last forever)
Some things don't last forever, oh
