Ky Baldwin - Crayon

I remember you at 5 years old
Crying in the corner
Billy had just broke your crayon
So I gave you another

Do you remember us at 8 years old
Singing all your favorite tunes
Then you gave me that smile
I'd follow you anywhere

But now I feel there's something wrong
Like now I don't belong
Why'd you have to grow up so damn fast

Can we wait here a little longer
Stay with me in our childhood wonder
There's no hurry don't go so fast
Just take our time, let's let it last
But now I feel you're slipping away
I'm begging for you, please just stay
Can't you still see that innocent girl
Her rosy cheeks and her hair in curls
Please bring her back to the way we were.

To the way we were
My girl
Please bring her back to the way we were

I remember us at 12 years old
Walking into middle school
Knowing there's you I could count on
But now nothing lasts forever

We're 16 now and I don't know how to tell you
You're following the wrong crowd
Tryna be something you shouldn't
Can't you see you have everything

But now I feel that somethings wrong
Like now I don't belong
Why'd you have to grow up so damn fast

Tell me

Can we wait here a little longer
Stay with me in our childhood wonder
There's no hurry don't go so fast
Just take our time, let's let it last
But now I feel you're slipping away
I'm begging for you, please just stay
Can't you still see that innocent girl
Her rosy cheeks and her hair in curls
Please bring her back to the way we were.

Stop huffin' and puffin' and racin' towards the finish line
No turning back once it's gone this is it so take your time
A diamond will always shine
And you'll find
Everything will be alright

Stop huffin' and puffin' and racin' towards the finish line
No turning back once it's gone this is it so take your time
Beware of the warning signs
And you'll find
Everything will be alright

Can we wait here a little longer (stay a little longer)
Stay with me in our childhood wonder
There's no hurry don't go so fast
Just take our time, let's let it last (ooh we're gonna let it last)
But now I feel you're slipping away
I'm begging for you, please just stay
Can't you still see that innocent girl
Her rosy cheeks and her hair in curls
Please bring her back to the way we were.

(Just slow it down my girl) to the way we were
(You got to bring her back) my girl
(Please, please, please bring her back to the way we were)
