Original lyrics
ENIf I had a time machine
I'd go back to Pittsburgh springs
Find myself four foot two
Rhine stone shoes
And watch for a little while
Run 'round in my backyard
Where I learned to wish on stars
Dance around a princess room
Without a clue for a little while
Before I knew everything I know
A flower bloomed, I never saw it grow
Then I'd see me at fourteen
Fallin' down the in betweens
Acting reckless, crave attention
Never get it, tryin' to find myself (ah)
Caving in and sneaking out (mm)
If only I could sit her down
Tell her it won't be like this forever
It turns out pretty well (ah)
Everything I knew changed before my eyes
And the flower grew, but petals fall sometimes
Every time I think it's the end
I bring myself back here again (ah)
When the flower bloomed
I'd never let it die
