Lyrics of Growing Up Beside You by Paolo Nutini
verse
Sitting beside you in school
While we′d paint I'd make you laugh
Mine was never very good
Yours looked exactly like the photograph
Looks like I′m growing, I'm growing up beside you
I don't always get the way you feel
But now I′ve learned to live with that
It′s like I'm a part of something real
I was hitting the bottle, now I′ve broke the seal
Looks like I'm growing, I′m growing up beside you
chorus
And the sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you
Oh, and the sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I′ll be growing, growing up beside you
bridge
And over and over again
chorus
And the sun sets the scene
While the rain misses me
And all the time I'll be growing, growing up beside you
outro
Oh, lady, looks like I'm growing, growing up beside you
Writer(s): Paolo Giovanni Nutini, Dave Nelson
