Desert Island Song (4): Stop This Train, John Mayer

My third post today, but not my last!

This song, from Mayer's album Continuum (2006), is a song I like because of the great feeling of the song, and that it is a little bit about me.
The entire song just has a great relaxed feeling over it. When you start it, you almost cannot do anything but to lay back and listen with your eyes closed, thinking the past day over. It is just a really enjoyable song, which, to me, just is a great break between all the busy things in life.
The reason why the song is about me, is because it is about not wanting to grow up and that growing up goes to fast. In the song, John Mayer sings about how he is "scared of getting older", and that he is "only good at being young". I feel the same way. The last few years have gone so fast, and sometimes I just rather be small again and not bear responsibilities etc. Just go back to the times when everything was carefree, when you did not know so much of the world, to the time when my parents were together....
