A good childhood - Flora Cash.mp3

[00:07.227]I wish that I could say I had a good childhood
[00:10.740]I guess I've got some memories of running through the woods
[00:14.092]And I believe I even built myself a tree house
[00:18.227]But I can't find a photo where I'm smiling with my teeth out
[00:20.556]
[00:21.952]I wish I'd listened more to what my grandpa said
[00:25.358]But I guess I got the gist of it, 'cause now and then I hear him in my head
[00:29.830]And what he says is I should aim high
[00:32.859]"'Cause 99 percent of people never really live before they..."
[00:35.065]
[00:38.209] Wish I could do it all again
[00:40.397]But meet you when I'm 10
[00:41.932]Be so much better with my best friend
[00:43.826]
[00:45.614]Wish I could do it all again
[00:47.793]But meet you when I'm 10
[00:49.694]Be so much better with you
[00:50.473]
[00:51.529]I wish I had another shot to grow up
[00:55.060]But have you living next to me
[00:57.006]That's probably how it's supposed to be
[00:57.973]
[00:59.011]But then I chose some folks in Minnesota
[01:02.483]Born into a quirky family
[01:04.112]That tried their best to manage me
[01:05.402]
[01:06.253]But I was always running from my own love
[01:09.702]Or running from authorities
[01:11.685]I really could've used your
[01:12.708]
[01:13.450]Company
[01:15.158]On my street
[01:16.918]We'd sure
[01:18.002]Be hard to beat
[01:18.965]
[01:20.622]I wish that I could say I had a good childhood

[01:31.819]But I can't find a photo where I'm smiling with my teeth out
[01:34.818]
[01:35.805]I wish I'd listened more to what my grandpa said
[01:39.304]But I guess I got the gist of it, 'cause now and then I hear him in my head
[01:43.461]And what he says is I should aim high
[01:46.745]"'Cause 99 percent of people never really live before they die"
[01:50.058]
[01:50.711]Wish I could do it all again

[02:03.405]Be so much better with you
[02:04.180]
[02:05.327]Was it heaven or hell
[02:06.790]It gets harder to tell
[02:08.606]But I guess I was living in both
[02:11.306]
[02:12.510]Beauty breaking my heart
[02:14.091]Being scared of the dark
[02:16.082]Being scared to grow up
[02:17.951]'Cause I would have to leave my mom
[02:21.056]I just wish that I'd had you along
[02:26.379]
[02:27.200]I wish that I could say I had a good childhood
