Acting My Age lyrics

I'm not avoiding you, I'm waiting

I'm not so good at confrontation

I'm not afraid to say I'm shaking

Wish I could start a conversation

(oh yeah)

You don’t know how lucky you are

You don’t know what’s coming next

You don’t know how lucky you are

I know accidents happen

I played my part

I know accidents happen

And it breaks my heart

[Chorus]

I never thought I’d tell myself it’s time I should start acting my age

I know I’ve done some silly things, I’ve made a few mistakes on the way

But I’ve never been on CNN, I’ve never had to cover my face

I want to make it up to you, I’ve just got to start acting my age

(my age)

I’m not exactly what you wanted

I always took your love for granted

Pull me over, check for damage

And drive away like it's a challenge

(oh yeah)

I know accidents happen

I played my part

[Chorus]

I never thought I’d tell myself it’s time I should start acting my age

I know I’ve done some silly things, I’ve made a few mistakes on the way

But I’ve never been on CNN, I’ve never had to cover my face

I want to make it up to you, I’ve just got to start acting my age

(my age)

You don’t know how lucky you are

You don’t know what’s coming next

You don’t know how lucky you are

I know accidents happen

And it breaks my heart

[Chorus]

I never thought I’d tell myself it’s time I should start acting my age

I know I’ve done some silly things, I’ve made a few mistakes on the way

But I’ve never been on CNN, I’ve never had to cover my face

I want to make it up to you, I’ve just got to start acting my age
