We're not children at the start of life
We're not children, just a part of life
Take it as it comes, gather all the plums

When that moment comes, you know in your heart and soul
We can find it, paradise is knocking at our door
Just remember we're not children anymore

Just remember we're not children anymore
Just remember we're not children anymore
