[Verse 1]

Forgive me, Pe

ter
My lost fearless leader
   
In closets lik

e cedar
              
Preserved from

              
 when we were 

     
just kids
              
Is it somethin

     
' I did?
    
The goddess of

 timing
Once found us beguiling
    
She said she w

as trying
Peter, was she lying?
         
My ribs get th

              
e feeling she 


did



[Pre-Chorus]
             
And I didn't w

        
anna come down
             
I thought it w

             
as just goodby


e for now



[Chorus]
    
You said you w

ere gonna grow

 up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me

Words from the

 mouths of bab

es
              
Promises ocean

  
s deep
             
But never to k


eep
             
Oh, never to k

  
eep



[Verse 2]

Are you still 

a mind reader?
A natural scene stealer?
     
I've heard gre

at things, Pet

er
              
But life was a

              
lways easier o

  
n you
              
Than it was on

 
 me
    
And sometimes 

it gets me
When crossing your jet stream
   
We both did th

e best we coul

d do
              
Underneath the

      
 same moon
              
In different g

   
alaxies



[Pre—Chorus]
             
And I didn't w

        
anna hang arou

nd
             
We said it was

          
 just goodbye 


for now



[Chorus]
    
You said you w

ere gonna grow

 up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me

Words from the

 mouths of bab

es
              
Promises ocean

 
s deep
             
But never to k


eep
             
Oh, never to k

  
eep



[Bridge]
    
And I won't co

nfess that I w

aited, but I l

et the lamp bu

rn
       
As the men mas

queraded, I ho

ped you'd retu

rn
          
With your feet


 on the ground

, tell me all 

that you'd lea

rned
       
'Cause love's 

never lost whe

n perspective 

is earned
        
And you said y

ou'd come and 

get me, but yo

u were twenty—

five
        
And the shelf 

life of those 

fantasies has 

expired

Lost to the "L

ost Boys" chap

ter of your li

fe

Forgive me, Pe

ter, please kn

ow that I trie

d
             
To hold on (Ho

              
ld on) to the 


days (To the d

ays)
              
When you were 


mine
             
But the woman 

              
who sits by th

  
e window
              
Has turned out

     
 the light



[Chorus]
    
You said you w

ere gonna grow

 up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
    
You said you w

ere gonna grow

 up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
    
You said you w

ere gonna grow

 up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were 

gonna grow up
Then you were gonna come find me
