Upside Down Lyrics

Lyric discussion by PacMan95 

Cover art for Upside Down lyrics by Jack Johnson

This song is about being a child, and then transitioning to an adult, everything carefree and happy and anything is possible, then the last lines "Please don't go away," is wanting to hang onto that as you watch it fade away "Is this how it's supposed to be?" Wondering if this is the way life really is where everything's so simple and boring and nothing is magical anymore.
