​growing older means doing it without you lyrics

[Verse 1]
You used to throw me money
When no one was around
It'll be our little secret
We wouldn't make a sound
Your pocket might be empty
But you still played your part
I know you came from nothing
But it didn't stop your heart

[Pre-Chorus]
I said oooo oooo
I still see your face in
Every constellation
I said oooo oooo
Wish I had the chance to say it
"I love you"

[Chorus]
Now I've washed all my tears away
Knowing you won't come back some day
And I know this to be true
Guess that growing older
Means doing it without you

[Post-Chorus]
And I won't forget your name
Cause I know I'll see you again
Now there's nothing left to do
Guess that growing older
Means doing it without you
[Verse 2]
You'd be at graduation
That's what you always said
I know you couldn't make it
But I know that's what you meant
And now I'm singing my songs
And I hope it makes you proud
Even if nobody hears them
I'll still sing them loud

[Pre-Chorus]
I said oooo oooo
I still see your face in
Every constellation
I said oooo oooo
Wish I had the chance to say it
"I love you"

[Chorus]
Now I've washed all my tears away
Knowing you won't come back some day
And I know this to be true
Guess that growing older
Means doing it without you

[Post-Chorus]
And I won't forget your name
Cause I know I'll see you again
Now there's nothing left to do
Guess that growing older
Means doing it without you
[Outro]
Now I've washed all my tears away
Knowing you won't come back some day
And I know this to be true
Guess that growing older
Means doing it without you
