Life Passes You By

If one day I could go back to 2003 And have a conversation with a smaller version of me He probably would recognize me with all the lines on my face I wonder if he'd believe all the things that could take place I'd say, boy, you're getting tall, cause I know he hates his size He'd flood my mind with questions while I look into his eyes "Did we grow up to be a superhero or at least a movie star?" "Do we drive a monster truck or a fancy race car?" "Is Mimi still around?" "Do we have babies of our own?" "Is there a beautiful girl waiting for us every day at home?" "Do Mom and Dad still fight?" "Do we still love cartoons?" "Do we still drink milk and eat snacks in the afternoon?" I'd say, "Boy, don't you worry. You'll have the answers one day." "Just keep your little head up and listen to what I say" Sometimes dreams don't work out the way you want them to But you chase them anyway, just in case they do Sometimes people you love hurt you the worst But you're gonna find the ones that always put you first Sometimes you're gonna laugh, sometimes you're gonna cry Don't forget to stop and look around When life passes you by If one day I could go back to 2003 And have a conversation with a smaller version of me
