Is it normal that i always cry whenever i hear the song "never grow up"?

It's easy to understand the meaning of this song, just by listening to its lyrics. Hearing this song for the first time i cried.

It's about, when your young, you've made no mistakes and life is simple. But you still want to grow up. By the done you've grown up you have many regrets and have been scarred, and everything you thought you had was one day gonna be gone.
Here's the lyrics:

Your little hand's wrapped around my finger and it's so quiet in the world tonight.
Your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreamin' so I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light.
To you, everything's funny. You got nothing to regret.
I'd give all I had, honey, if you could stay like that.

Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
Just stay this little.
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
It could stay this simple.
I won't let nobody hurt you.
Won't let no one break your heart.
No one will desert you, just try to never grow up.
Never grow up.

You're in the car on the way to the movies and you're mortified your mom's droppin' you off.
At 14, there's just so much you can't do and you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots.
But don't make her drop you off around the block; remember that she's getting older too.
And don't lose the way that you dance around in your PJ's, getting ready for school.

Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
Just stay this little.
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
It could stay this simple.
No one's ever burned you.
Nothing's ever left you scarred.
And even though you want to,
just try to never grow up.

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room.
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home.
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said, and all your little brother's favorite songs.
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone.
So here I am in my new apartment in a big city, they just dropped me off.
It's so much colder than I thought it would be so I tuck myself in and turn my night light on.
Wish I'd never grown up.
I wish I'd never grown up.

Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up.
Could still be little.
Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up.
It could still be simple.
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
Just stay this little.
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up.
Could stay this simple.

Won't let nobody hurt you. Won't let no one break your heart.
And even though you want to, please try to never grow up.
Oh, don't you ever grow up.
Just never grow up.
- by Taylor Swift. :)

    A lot of country songs are tear jerkers. If you get there before I do always makes me cry. I'm already there also gets me too. I'd post lyrics, but unfortunately I'm on my phone and have limited space.

    I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift, but I'd still say it's normal:) Pretty much every song I love has made me cry at least once. Music is incredible.

    Yes it is normal that you cry. Honestly it sucks to think about growing old and what life will be like in the future. It is true that the youth is innocent and careless because they know little; have no experience. You must understand though there are good things to growing old as well.

    Me personally, I never wanted to grow older. I'm not trying to stop it; I know physically I will age, but mentally I'll stay young. Regardless of how old you are, you still can enjoy life you just need to make it enjoyable.

    most people have a song they cry to. i hate to admit it but i cry or am close to crying when i hear how to save a life by the fray. it just gets to me and it doesn't help that it's a sad song. it meaning is easy to get lol but yeah it is normal.

    Step one you say we need to talk
    He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
    He smiles politely back at you
    You stare politely right on through
    Some sort of window to your right
    As he goes left and you stay right
    Between the lines of fear and blame
    And you begin to wonder why you came

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life

    Let him know that you know best
    Cause after all you do know best
    Try to slip past his defense
    Without granting innocence
    Lay down a list of what is wrong
    The things you've told him all along
    And pray to God, he hears you
    And pray to God, he hears you

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life

    As he begins to raise his voice
    You lower yours and grant him one last choice
    Drive until you lose the road
    Or break with the ones you've followed
    He will do one of two things
    He will admit to everything
    Or he'll say he's just not the same
    And you begin to wonder why you came

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life

    How to save a life

    How to save a life

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life

    Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
    Somewhere along in the bitterness
    And I would have stayed up with you all night
    Had I known how to save a life
    How to save a life

    How to save a life
