Platt, Ben - Grow As We Go Lyrics






You say there's so much you don't know
You need to go and find yourself
You say you'd rather be alone
'Cause you think you won't find it tied to someone else

Who said it's true,
That the growing only happens on your own?
They don't know me and you

I don't think you have to leave
If to change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
And we'll take it slow
And grow as we go, ooh
Grow as we go, ooh

You won't be the only one
I am unfinished, I've got so much left to learn
I don't know how this river runs
But I'd like the company through every twist and turn

Who said it's true,
That the growing only happens on your own?
They don't know me and you

You don't ever have to leave
If to change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
And we'll take it slow
And grow as we go, ooh
And grow as we go, ooh
And grow as we go, ooh
And grow as we go, ooh

I don't know who we'll become
I can't promise it's not written in the stars
But I believe that when it's done
We're gonna see that it was better
That we grew up together

Tell me you don't wanna leave
'Cause if change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
And we'll take it slow
And grow as we go, oh
And grow as we go, oh
And grow as we go, oh
And grow as we go, ooh

    This song made me:
    1:cry
    2:draw my friends
    3:cry
    4:not sleep because I was drawing for hours

  2. T.... r....

    It is a good song, but ya can hear the pain in his voice which makes the feeling of this song so much more impactful. I love singers who can make u feel their pain as ur own and vice versa. Very good song!

  3. S.... A....

    Loved his voice so smooth like BUTTER n his songs very related to me..🙂

  4. N.... L....

    Great dance!

  5. H.... C....

    This song is a masterpiece.

  6. J.... D....

    Who's the girl, man she's so pretty
    But not as pretty as the song. Love u Ben <3

  7. n.... ....

    I shared this song with my girlfriend a few weeks ago because she returned from a Doctors Without Borders deployment and was looking for a new job either near her parents or near her sisters which are both far away from each other and me (she hates the area where we lived before her deployment). I wanted her to know that I would follow her wherever she went and find a new job once she knew where she was going. She accepted a new job just before Christmas. I was going to start my job search after New Year's. She broke up with me on December 26th, so I came back to this song again as the desperate plea it was written to be.

  8. a.... g....

    Never knew Payton could sing damn well! His songs are underrated but good af

  9. G.... F....

    all i have to do it just think of this song and i start crying

  10. T.... Y....

    This is so so beautiful. Pretty much my love story in a song. I've walked away from such good love in the name of growth and change.

  11. a.... a....

    The fear of losing someone is everywhere but misunderstood, thanks for writing it the way it actually feels :)

  23. M.... A....

    Why do I give it off that its like the girl was the one saying she needs time off then as time past she fell inlove with another guy and didnt comeback to the guy she left the first time to fix herself and found it on another guy.

  24. S.... L....

    😖😖😖

  25. B.... t....

    I find big muscular interpretative dancers as weird people yet I will go gay for them in an instant

  26. J.... O....

  33. M.... S....

    very good subjetcts and beatuful you

  34. Y.... K....

    I love that choreography

  35. P.... D....

    Let me just say this is probably my favorite music video because of how moving it is, and just so emotional and relatable and truly beautiful.


    Not the biggest fan of the dancing and I wish they had showed Ben more and the dancing "sprinkled" in less as more of an accent- more focusing more on Ben's scene

  36. N.... b....

    I wish this song had existed 9 years ago. Maybe it could have prevented the biggest mistake of my life.

  37. c.... ....

    I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU AND THE WEEKEND !!!!! OMG

  38. K.... H....

    the lyrics in this song are so beautiful...

  39. A.... R....

    Desember 2019?

  40. S.... T....

    The dance is ok, but I want to watch his face and really feel the emotions.
    I saw him last night for the first in the first episode of The Politician. His version of the song River devastated me.

  41. S.... i....

    Who h u r t this man I’m gonna steal someone’s kneecaps

  42. M.... T....

    Is it weird that I started crying exactly when he started to cry? Wow what a beautiful song <3

  43. A.... M....

    I always think about my brother listening to this song. I decided to leave my homecountry to learn English while he stayed home studying in the local university. He suffered while I was away, but he couldn’t tell me because he didn’t want me to be homesick and we didn’t spoke much as so I could focus on my new life. Now that I’m back I know I don’t want to leave him again and I will do everything I can for our family

  44. R.... V....

    Will be playing at my Wedding. Thank you Ben

  45. P.... D....

    Beautiful song

  46. A.... C....

  47. P.... A....

  48. K.... L....

    I just want to cry and sway and smile and sing to it. So brealtakingly beautiful.

  49. L.... D....

    God Blessed you with lovely voice, Jesus is the promised Messiah is Jew, I’m Catholic follower Jesus, I’m Hemiplegia I feel sad why people don’t respect that they are either male or female, why this distortion and young children are influenced, it’s heart breaking makes me cry and sad! I pray everyday that satan is ruling waiting for JESUS to come soon! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

  50. l.... r....

  51. L.... M....

  52. S.... P....

  53. A.... C....

    This is so underrated... what a powerful song and such a romantic yet heartbreaking meaning behind the lyrics

  54. H.... A....

    perfect.

  55. J.... S....

    My partner was feeling a little stir crazy in our relationship, like he needed to go see what's out there. I really thought I was gonna lose him, but we talked about it and realized neither of us want to see each other go anywhere.

  56. C.... A....

    Robbie if you’re reading this, I love you.

  57. S.... E....

    this sings deserves far more recognition 🥺

  58. P.... ....

    Is there a type to that kind of dancing? What's it called?

    P.... ....

    Contemporary

  59. L.... E....

    Day 6: I'm still obsessively listening to this song in repeat. There's something deeply melancholic yet at the same time feels-goody with the whole song which makes me really REALLY like it. I think I'm making "grow as we go" my personal mantra. Haha.

  60. G.... J....

    only god knows how much i cried while listening to this song

    G.... J....

    Makes two of us...

  61. B.... ....

    Dunno if it's just me but when he says "Yes. Good," at the end made me explode with emotions
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ maybe it is only me haha

  62. L.... ....

    My Gf made me watch this and cried, so i hit her

  63. v.... r....

    Made me cry over and over.

  64. A.... D....

    Shit, This Song, Make Me Cry ;(

  65. Y.... L....

    this is so good 👍🏼 👍🏼

  66. N.... Y....

    Idk why i cried

  67. W.... L....

    I'm sold. Beautiful and note worthy.

  68. M.... ....

    u make me want to grow young ha get it

  69. M.... J....

    I forgot this song a video and took me almost 1hour to find it. Hell if I will leave without a commnet

  70. K.... P....

    Oh! The feels! He was singing to someone and it broke my heart! Those tears tho!

  71. R.... C....

    One of the best songs ever❤️
    And happiness is seeing this song growing and gaining more views....so lets grow as we go❤️☺️

  72. M.... K....

    Who tf disliked the video? wtf

  73. D.... L....

    Um, hey, maybe credit your dancers?

  74. A.... A....

    What kind of relationships make people write songs like this?

  75. J.... B....

    Piles of rock piles of people... you can ebb and I can flow, Passion for reading personal preference... in growing as we go... light footed nymph free... living as if truly tree 🌳... that sparkle in eye never... extinguished in Nevada... timeless trigonometry...

  76. L.... ....

    his voice has this pinch of sam smith xD dunno why i thought that but i just did

  77. A.... K....

    U N D E R R A T E D

  78. A.... V....

    I love this powerful song. it brings me to tears every single time. thank you for sharing it, Ben 😊

  79. M.... E....

    He is just absolutely incredible. What a talent!!

  80. M.... ....

    3:14 I love this part so much. When the man she’s been dancing with appears, she goes back to dancing gracefully, like she was made to dance with him. When he disappears, she falls, gets angry, becomes frustrated and upset, etc. the sudden shift in tone in the music is very fitting and sounds great in general. I felt like this part was very under looked, what are everybody else’s thoughts?

  81. �.... ....

    His voice is perfect and sad, so the song is listened more sadly

  82. d.... S....

    👆🎤🎵👏😢

  83. C.... S....

    Dear Evan Hansen we've been really out of touch. I've noticed we don't talk that much but I'm starting to lose control of my life, I've lost my job, scared straight about money and making ends meet...and finishing my love story and getting married to someone I love. I really hope you know how this song tells exactly how I feel.

  84. D.... W....

    I am obsessed with this!!!!

  85. E.... D....

    Is it me or does Ben look completely different than he did 3 years ago it’s like a different person

  86. H.... L....

    Such a beautiful song!!!

  87. L.... ....

    It’s a beautiful song that I felt because this is how I felt. I always felt like I had to leave in order to grow I always needed the space.
    And the choreography was amazing the whole concept beautiful.
    First he had left, then was in and out of the picture , which was beautifully translated through the dance scenes btw. But in the end the reality is she wasn’t there or was gone when he needed her there now and expected her to be. She finally grew and left

  88. e.... f....

    this song just tore my soul apart

  89. C.... E....

    since i saw this below


    hey future me,
    if you see this comment again, i want you to know that you will move on from her.
    you deserve so much more that how she treated you, and i hope you know that. And if you have moved on, right now im thinking about her and it's 3 freaking am and the pressure is getting hard, craves are getting closer.
    but i promise that i wont. for your sake and mine.
    i love you, and i hope you dont love her anymore. let go <3

  90. N.... ....

    It's my favorite song from now onward 💕💔 ..

    I love it .. 😭🖤

  98. M.... H....

    The young kids of today should learn from this song. Love is effort and if you want the person you have to work at it. Every year will bring new challenges and we ultimately change but as we go we can grow together. If you just want to give up and move on then that is an option as well.
