Growing Up Alone Lyrics

Dear Miss Hope, why ain't you home?
She's down the road
With a guy that you don't know

And at the same time
I'm growing up alone

So don't tell me
About the way I should be
I'm sorry, but my heart needs to sleep

And I can't help
The way that I have felt
The way I can't now feel without anyone else

And at the same time
I'm growing up

So here I am (shalalalala)
I'm your biggest fan (shalalalala)

I'll try and track you down
Wherever I can

And at the same time
I'm growing up alone

You controlled my head for the bank holiday
(I won't stand for it) x9

And at the same time

I'm growing up alone x3

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
