Wild Party – When I Get Older lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down by the dock
Sits a man on a rock
With his hands in the air
Hear him talk, hear him swearing
[Pre-Chorus]
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
Long as I sleep through the dark and make up my mind
Just know I regret the time I let you pass by
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Out with my pals
Getting lost in the crowds
See the girl in her heels
Raise her glass to the ceiling
[Pre-Chorus]
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
Long as I sleep through the night and make up my mind
Just know I shook off the time I let you pass by
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Bridge]
We wanna be like the celebrities
That we see on TV with a nice set of keys
But what I want is what you want
And we want to feel young
Somewhat mistreated, yeah
Yeah, somewhat, what, somewhat misjudged
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
(Long as I sleep through the dark and make up my mind)
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
(Yeah, what's with this whole parade of emotion?)
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Outro]
If what I want is what you want
Wanna be like that, then be like that
Down by the dock
Sits a man on a rock
With his hands in the air
Hear him talk, hear him swearing
[Pre-Chorus]
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
Long as I sleep through the dark and make up my mind
Just know I regret the time I let you pass by
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Out with my pals
Getting lost in the crowds
See the girl in her heels
Raise her glass to the ceiling
[Pre-Chorus]
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
Long as I sleep through the night and make up my mind
Just know I shook off the time I let you pass by
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Bridge]
We wanna be like the celebrities
That we see on TV with a nice set of keys
But what I want is what you want
And we want to feel young
Somewhat mistreated, yeah
Yeah, somewhat, what, somewhat misjudged
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
(Long as I sleep through the dark and make up my mind)
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
(Yeah, what's with this whole parade of emotion?)
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
Oh, maybe there's still hope
Maybe there's still ho-oh-oh
[Outro]
If what I want is what you want
Wanna be like that, then be like that
