Angela Parchetta - 26 Lyrics

She counts the stars reflected in her eyes
She runs around playing pretend
She wants to be a doctor and a princess
Gold chain hangs around her neck
Hold mama's cross and papa's wings
Reminds her they're with her through all things
Through all things
Cuz I've been thinking how crazy it is
That the days move slow but the years move fast
Cuz just yesterday I was a wide eyed kid
Now I'm waking up
26
Wish I could go back
Tell my younger self
Not to spend so much time
Worrying about everyone else
Worrying about the reflection in the mirror
Or making decisions out of fear
Out of fear
Cuz I've been thinking how crazy it is
That the days move slow but the years move fast
Cuz just yesterday I was a wide eyed kid
Now I'm waking up
26
Time's a funny thing
And it played me for a fool
Made me think I had it all.
Cuz here I sit all these years later
All on my own
Reliving all my memories through polaroids
Wishing I had seen them through these eyes
Before they were gone
Cuz I've been thinking how crazy it is
That the days move slow but the years move fast
Wish I could make them last
I've been thinking how crazy it is
That the days move slow but the years move fast
Cuz just yesterday I was a wide eyed kid
Now I'm waking up
26
