Yeah I was one of those. Green up taking care of my mom, and now that she's even older, I live with her again, and take care of her still. I'm of the few "kids" I'm 50.. who can say I get to tuck my mom in at night! It's actually a comforting great feeling!
When I first watched this movie (13) i related to it so much because I was the oldest and I was really mature for my age. Then when I watched it a few days ago (18) I had to stop myself from crying because it still touches a nerve - especially because I didn't want the responsibility that came with being an 'adult'. This is one of Disney's unrecognised gems.
I grew up with this version of Peter Pan instead of the original and I remember wanting to be Jane so badly. I was about 6 the last time I watched it, but I decided to watch it this morning (I'm 14 now) and I almost started crying during this song.
I'm 21 now, and I'm in the same boat. I watched this when I was maybe 12 or 13, and this song is still one of my favorites I catch myself singing randomly.
Same I was 13 and as someone who is still 13 I understand this song but it's different I can't see what most kids see. I can't give up my imagination of seeing things around me even if they are not there.
Jaylynn Rosewater-Holmes same here. i was just looking at my old birthday photos as a child with this song playing. my 22nd birthday was just last week and thinking of the hell i have gone through all the years and at the same time my wishes coming true, i cried a river 😢😭 i also loved peter pan as a child. i couldnt really understand why i had love for peter pan, but now as a young adult, i know why.
This song was the highlight of Return to Neverland for me. It reminds me so much of what could happen if I finally push aside my stories, and that one day I'll regret it, so I always keep a sketchbook close to me so I won't forget them
I always start bawling like a baby whenever I hear this... Makes me so afraid of growing up, being finished with high school. But then, at the end, it brings me hope.
+PotatesChan I'm in 8th grade, and I've got 212 days and 10 hours until my graduation (as of me typing this). I feel like school just started and given my past, I'm amazed I even let myself live past age 8. Sob story skipped though, growing up scares the hell out of me. I don't want to leave 8th grade, I just want to stay with the friends I have now and not fake ones I'll have in highschool. Growing up is freaking scary.
RawrI'mHailz I graduated high school almost 2 years ago and I'll tell you this; grown-up Wendy in this movie was right. You can grow up but still have faith and trust like a child. That's what keeps me going, when it feels like I can't handle the responsibilities of a young adult. You gotta have faith that you'll make it out alive. You gotta trust in yourself that you can do it. You have to believe in yourself. :)
Watching the movie at 26 once more, I cry at the part where the children had to say goodbye to their parents at the station. This happened in real life.
Super late but possibly one of Disney’s greatest sequels they’ve ever made. Jane is so refreshing and a great contrast to Wendy Darling who didn’t grow up with that same imaginative spirit because of the world around her. This movie goes out to all those kids who had to grow up too fast and face reality
I remembered this song randomly while I was in the shower today and just started bawling. What is the deal with it? It makes me want to be a little girl again with my Polly Pockets and Webkinz. I will never stop loving this song omg.
I think peter pan's not wanting to grow up and 'rescuing wendy from her harsh world' is an anology to escapism. Peter helps us escape and in defeating the pirates he defeats the problems in both of Wendy's world. But defeating the pirate in neverland made Wendy want to go home, because she realized her problems at home no longer existed. 😭😭😭 Peter pan is an anology for us to get away from life's problems
sampea CAML But the great thing about this song is, it's not really a song about hopelessness, or depression. I've listened to this song literally a million times (as the years have gone by) and I can confidently say to you that "I'll Try" is actually a song about hope. It's a beautiful song about finding that hopeful child, that happy child, in oneself again. It's about re-discovering the light in oneself, that pure childlike light that you thought you had lost. That's why the very last line of this song is: "I'll try.......to fly." That means that she has finally learned to be happy again, to be free again, she has FINALLY conquered her fears, or the stuff that had brought her down. The beginning of the song sounds really depressing, because she has so many doubts, she's feeling lost and scared, but after the bridge in the song, she comes to realize that she needs to be courageous, she needs to be brave, and she needs to have that childlike heart again, in order for her to be able to "fly." "I'll Try" sounds like a sad song but it's actually a song with a strong and positive message.
Alex Holcey Thank you, so very much, for your response to my comment. ❤💚💙❤ It's very rare that people write a response to me, so I truly appreciate your comment. Thank YOU. 😊
This song has followed and found me in so many points in my life. From when I first saw this movie when I was little, from when I was dealing with unfamiliar, unknown emotions of unhappiness at a very young age (aka what i know now as depression), to my teens when I was trying to find happiness, to now in my 20s where I'm still trying to find myself and my own magic and try not to grow up too fast (by doing Disney marathons in order of release which has taken 2 years, and getting up to this one) but also be a responsible adult. All of these times I was losing the magic within, but this song makes me acknowledge myself and what I'm missing and that I am trying. Peter Pan will always hold a very special place in my heart and I will always believe.
Since I was a little girl I heard this song when I just wanted to cry because of life. Every song that I heard is about believing that everything is fine and going to work out for the best, but this song is the only one who's actually talking about trying and failing... It actually says that it's okay to fail as long as u try.
Hi Peter i always blamed you for not coming to take me to Neverland I want to tell you what happened, yes i grew up, i am 24 now You know Peter, I remember being emotionally troubled when i was a child. It was so hard and painful, especially i didn't have the patience to bear elders nonsense. Sometimes it was hard to be a good person because i was still learning. I wasn't close to mum but when i grew up i learned to give To say" i love you mum " To appreciate her smile and her existence, now i can understand more I am little sad, my whole world changed It was nice to not worry about the future, to not overthink When you understand more you see more, it's a great deal because you see the truth... Truth not many can bear There is so much pain in the world and i am powerless Peter you are have a special place in my heart Part of me will never grow up I still try to enjoy life and appreciate it's beauty Thank you Peter
I saw this movie with my grandpa when I was about ten years old. He raised me, believed in me, and he always loved me. He passed away this past May, about 15 years later. Bittersweet feelings with this one, but this song rings more true now then ever. And it makes me think of him, how he tried to protect me and he did his best to let me be a kid when my so called parents would try to force me to grow up too quickly. It's been hard, but I'll try to still believe and fly., I know he is proud of me.
Heaven. Peter Pan was supposed to be an angel that took dying children yo 'neverland' (heaven) hence why they never grew up Sorry if I killed your childhood
But if Peter Pan was an angel and all the lost boys were angels (maybe archangels), and dead, then does that mean Wendy and her brothers died but Peter gave them a second chance? If they chose to stay in neverland then they'd never come back to earth thus giving them the choice to go back instead. Making them alive again. And on the Peter Pan sequel, Jane was in a middle of a war zone, thus, making her dead and Hook was supposed to get her because he represents a demon. She was going to hell cause she never was that nice to others but Pan rescued her and gave her a second chance. When Hook got mad and tried bribing Jane to join him, but then he failed yet giving her the whistle. And then when Jane betrayed peter pan thus losing tink as well. As she loses Tink, she lost her hope in going back to London. When she brought tink back to life and then rescued Pan, it was a decision that her life would be spared and so Pan gave her a second chance. Heh, who knew peter pan could hold so many secrets.
This song gives me hope in overcoming my anxiety. The lyrics "I try, but it's so hard to believe, I try, but I can't see what you see" remind me of how my sister will try to get me to understand that whatever I think will happen will definitely not happen. I find it hard to believe her, and I have trouble with separating love from fear. But the final part, which is more happy in tone, makes me hope that one day I'll be okay.
I am anxious here too! My family is religious and no matter how much I try to pray, my mom tells me that I really am not having faith in myself nor in God. My anxiety is such a horrible experience tho! Is there a reason why you are anxious though?
Hikari Takahashi Dude, don't be afraid to tell me. I am suffering with something pretty ridiculous too! Do you have other accounts besides Google+ so we can talk about this?
It's funny how I used to be indifferent with this song when I was just a kid eagerly watching Peter Pan and Jane for the first time. Now, this music is the soundtrack of my YOUTH.
Awww childhood memories...I remember this song used to make me so sad and want to cry when I was little. I loved peter pan so much though that it was worth it. Man couldn't even tell you how many times I'veseen this movie
I just watched this a few days ago. I realize that growing up is much more difficult than I previously thought. It makes me upset that I'm getting older and wish I was a kid forever...

I miss my childhood.. Even though I'm only 15, I believe I'm matured for my age considering the time we live in right now.. I want to go back from when I didn't have a care in the world, only focusing on what Disney movie I should watch next or what to play next.. I can only imagine what this song would feel like when I'm older.. To my future self.. If you ever see this.. I hope you're doing fine. Whatever made you listen to this song again, I hope everything goes fine for you soon. If ever you want a message from your past self, just remember.. Growing up is a choice and never forget all the learnings you had when you were younger. Just remember, all it takes is faith, trust, and pixie dust. You'll fly
How are you doing now? You’re 17, right? I’m 20. Just a little older. At the brink of adulthood. Although I do enjoy being an adult, I still keep my childhood close to me. I still love to daydream and fantasize about things. It just makes the world a little brighter
Guess you'll be nineteen now... hope you still haven't grown up yet, at least not too much! I'm 38 myself, and I hope I haven't either, sometimes I feel one way, sometimes another.
I'm 29, never heard this song before, just stumbled across it. And by god, I'm crying rivers!! The melody is amazing, progression and lyrics! Everything just adds up to a tug of war with my heart strings. For me it's about escapism from having to face reality. "Too old to believe" then "I'll try" to find joy, hope and meaning in times of hardship, when you don't have anything else. Despite not feeling well, stress or other hurdles.. I'll try, and I'll fly🙏!
I'm crying literally for 2 hours after listening this cuz it really reminds this movie as my childhood movies that I used to watch different times but also cuz now that I'm grown up I really miss my inner child and my childhood when everything was so naive and simple
I have listened to this song since I was only a little older than a baby, and sung it for years. Just stumbled upon it again for the first time in years, and never has it been more relatable. Still me, through and through. Gosh, I never wanted to grow up; never really have to, right? ;)
This song really touches a nerve for me. I mean, I was way too mature for my age growing up...from 11 onwards I was being the mother of my family...it just makes me reflect on my life growing up.
This song transports me into another world.. one that feels so distant and unrecognizable now, like a dream I can never reach. I miss when the stars actually twinkled in the sky, when fairies would kiss your cheeks goodnight, when the pirate ships and flying boys would sail over your head, twisting through your strands of hair that spread around like oceanic waves, careening into the deep blue abyss of neverending dreams as you fluttered your eyes to sleep..
This song song reminds me of my 13th birthday. Because I woke up that morning and it suddenly dawned on me that I wasn’t a ‘child’ anymore but a teenager/adolescent. And I suddenly realised I was growing up, and realised that I just took my ‘childhood’ for granted. I was technically still a child though but I just felt like my childhood had mostly gone before my eyes. I am now 17 years old.
When I listen to this song, it makes me wanna go back to a time when I was a kid. I used to have a bunch of toys such as hot wheels, legos, remote control cars and planes, and the list goes on. As I grew up, I had to let those things go and start “acting my age”. I’m 25 years old right now, but the kid inside me has never gone away. I always say, enjoy the time you have as a kid because then eventually you gotta grow up
I'm not a child now 🌙 I can take care of myself ⭐ I mustn't let them down now 🌠 I must not let them see me cry🌟 I'm fine, I'm fine🌛 I'm too tired to listen 🌕 I'm too old to believe 🌙 All these childish stories 🌚 There is no such thing as faith🌟 And trust and pixie dust 🌠 I try but its so hard to believe ☁️ I try but I can't see what you see 🌝 I try, I try, I try🌙 My whole world is changing🌘 I don't know where to turn 🌑 I can't leave you waiting🌒 But I can't stay and watch the city burn 🌉 Watch it burn🌅 'Cause I try but its so hard to believe 🌆 I try but I can't see what you see 🌌 I try, I try, I try⛼ And I try to understand the distance in between🌟 The love I feel 🌝 The things I fear 🌙 And every single dream 🌚 I can finally see it 🌕 Now I have to believe 🌘 All those precious stories 🌠 All the world is made of faith⭐ And trust and pixie dust ☄☄ So I'll try⚡ 'Cause I finally believe🌠 I'll try🌟 'Cause I can see what you see 🌝 I'll try, I'll try, I will try🌚 I'll try🌘 To fly🌌🌌
I love the characterization of this character this is just beautiful Jane darling is my favorite character throughout the Peter Pan franchise so to see this is perfect
I was forced to grow up so quickly for so many reasons. My parents divorcing, being "gifted", looking older than I was, moving, so many things I couldn't even control. I never wanted to grow up, and I still wish I hadn't. I see the world for what it really is and I try to have hope, and Disney is really one of the only thing that can supply it. Especially Peter Pan.
When my parents would take me to rent a movie, I ALWAYS got return to Neverland because I loved this song. I used to rewind it over and over and cry along with it.
Oh god this just sent me down a rabbit hole of feelings. This is especially true as the only one in my family going to college and everything is changing and depending on me.
This song really did and still does touch my heart. I use to listen to it a lot after my Papa Phil's death. It was really hard and this song still reminds me of him after 4-5 years later.
my mom sang this to me at bedtime as a kid! but she only knew the movie version so I was always left thinking that there must be more lyrics so today I found them. Yay me!
Kimberly Perez Not just season one either. Further on, even in neverland, she struggles. "Peter pan, really?". "Wicked witch? She's real too?' 'Says the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming'"
I went from crying for not wanting to let my childhood self go to being okay with the lyrics like knowing it's okay to disappoint people (they'll be okay) and growing up is okay. Like I'm not a child anymore and being tired is okay and all I have to do is take things one a time. It's okay to reminisce and accepting that I can grow up mentally. It's hard for me thinking I'll turn like my abusive mom if I grew up. I was trapped in that mindset but it's okay now. I finally let myself take that leap and fly. ❤
i watched this movie over and over when i was a kid and this is literally the only song i can remember from the whole movie. now that i hear it i realise that it has way more feelings in the lyrics. it was my favourite movie when i was little and it brings back so much memorys and nastolgia.
The year is 2024 and I still remember hearing this song for the first time with my younger cousins all around the tv, now we are all grown up and living in different countries I miss childhood glad I can come back and experience it again through this heart felt song ✨ 🧚♀️
I just became a young military widow the day before yesterday, and a young widow TWICE now! On my BIRTHDAY, one month before our first--just our FIRST--wedding anniversary! This song is perfect portrayal of the emotional roller coaster of the military widowed
i sang this to my little sister the first time she felt heartbroken and gave up with trying to keep hope,it let her know she wasn't the only person dealing with that,and every time she's trying to give up I sing it to her,she does the same for me.
Always loved this song. Never forget parts of your childhood guys. Sometimes the best things when growing up are holding onto that child in your heart.
this song is more and more relevant to the modern world, which says a lot as it speaks of events during WWII, a period we said we'd never return to yet the world is in a similar situation today as it was back then.
this was my fav movie when i was a kid and i listened to this song so many times that now i cry everytime i hear it because i watched the movie for the first time in my dad's office when i actually spent time with him, now we barely even talk the most he says to me is "pass the salt" when we're eating lunch.
This song makes me so emotional because even as a child I mean as old as six I was way to mature eldest of four and constantly being abused took its toll. By the time I was seven I was basically a mother. Cause even at that age when I watched Peter Pan I would be sad cause I knew I was too mature for neverland
Im 14 and had gone through shit that would of put adults in therapy. And on top of all the shit ive been through and is going through everyone wants me to put on a face and act grown because they cant! This song hits hard. I love it but it hits hard…
I’ve been going through the same thing right now. I once tried to ask my friends to tone down the negative discussions about Disney, and one of them told me to basically “Grow up!” And recently I’ve been seeing all kinds of beloved childhood characters “twisted” in horrible ways. I can feel the painful despair trying to consume me. But there’s this small flickering light of hope that’s saying, “Don’t give up”
@@princesspixel3151 I am sorry for what happened to you. But as you said, there is always hope and you can find people that understand you and have the same interests as you.
We all still want to fly....so we all get up and give it a try.....but in the end we always cry as we gracefully fall from the bright starry night sky....holding onto the small piece of childhood we once had....now only to be memories that are sad....our hearts broken and ripped apart....now that we have all grown and the years have flown by....we won't believe in such things like faith, trust and pixie dust....even if we try....because we've realised it doesn't always last and that we all grew up way too fast....💔😞
This song really hits with the kids who had to grow up too fast due to life situations.
Yeah I was one of those. Green up taking care of my mom, and now that she's even older, I live with her again, and take care of her still. I'm of the few "kids" I'm 50.. who can say I get to tuck my mom in at night! It's actually a comforting great feeling!
As someone from a single parent home, the middle child, moving to a different country at a young age, and dealing (finally treating) BPD…. Yes.
The movie is decent but the song hits me
As someone who suffered from chronic illness who had to stay strong for her family… it really hits
Coming from an abusive/dysfunctional home where you see your family being torn apart and all you can do is sit and watch it as kid. I agree

I would too. I'd tell my young self to wait for love to not go to someone who's gonna force himself on me, tell the younger me to be strong.
This song was the highlight of Return to Neverland for me. It reminds me so much of what could happen if I finally push aside my stories, and that one day I'll regret it, so I always keep a sketchbook close to me so I won't forget them

Hi Peter i always blamed you for not coming to take me to Neverland
I want to tell you what happened, yes i grew up, i am 24 now
You know Peter, I remember being emotionally troubled when i was a child. It was so hard and painful, especially i didn't have the patience to bear elders nonsense.
Sometimes it was hard to be a good person because i was still learning.
I wasn't close to mum but when i grew up i learned to give
To say" i love you mum "
To appreciate her smile and her existence, now i can understand more
I am little sad, my whole world changed
It was nice to not worry about the future, to not overthink
When you understand more you see more, it's a great deal because you see the truth... Truth not many can bear
There is so much pain in the world and i am powerless
Peter you are have a special place in my heart
Part of me will never grow up
I still try to enjoy life and appreciate it's beauty

You can think of never land as Heaven
Heaven.
Peter Pan was supposed to be an angel that took dying children yo 'neverland' (heaven) hence why they never grew up
Sorry if I killed your childhood
But if Peter Pan was an angel and all the lost boys were angels (maybe archangels), and dead, then does that mean Wendy and her brothers died but Peter gave them a second chance? If they chose to stay in neverland then they'd never come back to earth thus giving them the choice to go back instead. Making them alive again. And on the Peter Pan sequel, Jane was in a middle of a war zone, thus, making her dead and Hook was supposed to get her because he represents a demon. She was going to hell cause she never was that nice to others but Pan rescued her and gave her a second chance. When Hook got mad and tried bribing Jane to join him, but then he failed yet giving her the whistle. And then when Jane betrayed peter pan thus losing tink as well. As she loses Tink, she lost her hope in going back to London. When she brought tink back to life and then rescued Pan, it was a decision that her life would be spared and so Pan gave her a second chance. Heh, who knew peter pan could hold so many secrets.

This song touches my heart in so many ways.
This song gives me hope in overcoming my anxiety. The lyrics "I try, but it's so hard to believe, I try, but I can't see what you see" remind me of how my sister will try to get me to understand that whatever I think will happen will definitely not happen. I find it hard to believe her, and I have trouble with separating love from fear. But the final part, which is more happy in tone, makes me hope that one day I'll be okay.
It gets better. You will find your way out :)
I am anxious here too! My family is religious and no matter how much I try to pray, my mom tells me that I really am not having faith in myself nor in God. My anxiety is such a horrible experience tho! Is there a reason why you are anxious though?
Lexi Mory There is a reason for my anxiety, but it's something that I feel is ridiculous, especially after being told so by my ex.
Hikari Takahashi Dude, don't be afraid to tell me. I am suffering with something pretty ridiculous too! Do you have other accounts besides Google+ so we can talk about this?
Just a twitter and an instagram account.
It's funny how I used to be indifferent with this song when I was just a kid eagerly watching Peter Pan and Jane for the first time. Now, this music is the soundtrack of my YOUTH.
Why?
I can so relate!
Awww childhood memories...I remember this song used to make me so sad and want to cry when I was little. I loved peter pan so much though that it was worth it. Man couldn't even tell you how many times I'veseen this movie
Not childhood memories and you can still like it
I think Peter Pan is the reason I let my inner child live on, even as an adult. AND I LOVE IT!
I forgot how unnecessarily hard this Disney sequel song hits.
me too.
2019 and i just remembered this song while brushing my teeth. I really love the message of this song.
I just watched this a few days ago. I realize that growing up is much more difficult than I previously thought. It makes me upset that I'm getting older and wish I was a kid forever...
Whenever I hear this song, It reminds me of known actors, music artists, and everyone else we've grown up with during our childhood that are now unfortunately gone that have helped make the world a better place for everyone and even animals. like Robin Williams, Micheal Jackson, Christine Cavanaugh, Mel Blanc, Gary Owens, Leonard Nimoy, Steve Irwin, Dom Deluise, Bob Hoskins, Jim Henson, Shirley Temple, Walt Disney, Louis Armstrong, William Hanna, Joseph Barbera, Casey Kasem, Wayne Allwine, Don Messick, Judith Barsi, Whitney Houston, Richard Attenborough, Dickie Jones, Jim Croce, Barry White, Bernie Mac, Billy Mays, Bill Scott, Chuck Jones, Neil Armstrong, Mickey Rooney, John Lennon, Selena, Ninento President Satoru Iwata, Howard Morris , William Windom, Lee Thompson Young, Jerry Dexter , Danny Wells, Lucille Bliss, Ernest Borgnine, Alice Playten, Captain Lou Albano, Marty Ingels', Natalie Cole, Rodney Dangerfield, James Avery, Rod Taylor, Norman Bridwell, Lorenzo Music, Dwayne Mcduffie, Dana Hill, Roberto Gomez Bolanos, John Stephenson, Steve Viksten, Barrie Ingham, Brian Bedford, Wes Craven, Daniel Kyre, Yvonne Joyce Craig, Deem Bristow, Chikao Ohtsuka, Ross Bagdasarian Sr., Lee Thompson Young, and just recently Joe Alaskey, Legend of Rock PRINCE, Alan Young, Jack Riley, & C.

Cameron Boyce
No childhood
@@elisabethsande346 I suppose for younger generations Cameron Boyce is their childhood.
I miss my childhood.. Even though I'm only 15, I believe I'm matured for my age considering the time we live in right now.. I want to go back from when I didn't have a care in the world, only focusing on what Disney movie I should watch next or what to play next.. I can only imagine what this song would feel like when I'm older..
To my future self..
If you ever see this.. I hope you're doing fine. Whatever made you listen to this song again, I hope everything goes fine for you soon. If ever you want a message from your past self, just remember.. Growing up is a choice and never forget all the learnings you had when you were younger. Just remember, all it takes is faith, trust, and pixie dust. You'll fly
Do think that way, you still have at least five years of a childhood, live it kiddo, before its gone.
Why did this make me bawl like a baby all over again damn😭😭😭❤ I hope future you knows how special you are🥲
How are you doing now? You’re 17, right? I’m 20. Just a little older. At the brink of adulthood. Although I do enjoy being an adult, I still keep my childhood close to me. I still love to daydream and fantasize about things. It just makes the world a little brighter
@@borhaptrash5454 Yes I'm 17! Things just got a little harder but I'm actually doing well
Guess you'll be nineteen now... hope you still haven't grown up yet, at least not too much! I'm 38 myself, and I hope I haven't either, sometimes I feel one way, sometimes another.
this song is really depressing I love it
yes.
even when i heard it as a child, i felt the emotions. listening to it now as a 22 year old, it still hits the same, maybe even deeper
@@snow.flower Same except i am 2 yrs older than you.
Me before : why that's a good song
Me now : tears coming out with memories watching the movie
I'm 29, never heard this song before, just stumbled across it. And by god, I'm crying rivers!! The melody is amazing, progression and lyrics! Everything just adds up to a tug of war with my heart strings.
For me it's about escapism from having to face reality. "Too old to believe" then "I'll try" to find joy, hope and meaning in times of hardship, when you don't have anything else. Despite not feeling well, stress or other hurdles.. I'll try, and I'll fly🙏!
This song always made me cry for some reason
Same
I'm crying literally for 2 hours after listening this cuz it really reminds this movie as my childhood movies that I used to watch different times but also cuz now that I'm grown up I really miss my inner child and my childhood when everything was so naive and simple
0:24 this part makes me think of my depression... and my suicidal thoughts... "Mustn't let them see me cry, I'm fine, I'm fine"
I may not know you and I may never meet you but to you I say this if you're going thru hell keep going for there is light.
We're little kids on the inside, aren't we? Look at us. Listening to hard rock and then this. I'm an emotional wreck rn.
Cesi Perez I have suicidal thoughts too and deppresion so I know what you're going through 💔
Same here I have Suicidal Thoughts
For anyone who wants to kill themselves, please don't. God loves you and will help you if you will just ask Him. He will always be there for you.
I have listened to this song since I was only a little older than a baby, and sung it for years. Just stumbled upon it again for the first time in years, and never has it been more relatable. Still me, through and through. Gosh, I never wanted to grow up; never really have to, right? ;)
This song helped me through some stuff when I was a kid. I'll always love it
this song helps me get through adulthood (I sometimes wish I was still a kid lol)from the stress of college and other stuff :)
truuth
what stuff
"None-of-your-business-stuff", that's what.
Briana Allbright just like ariel did for my girlfriend
This song really touches a nerve for me. I mean, I was way too mature for my age growing up...from 11 onwards I was being the mother of my family...it just makes me reflect on my life growing up.
wow.
2018 and still crying :(
i believe in Peter Pan and Tinkerbell
same
*Peter pan and tinker Belle arrive*
♡♡
Then that's a problem...
@@emmanevius-norvell9003 yikes. Only a Karen would write in all caps with explanation marks in their sentences
This song transports me into another world.. one that feels so distant and unrecognizable now, like a dream I can never reach. I miss when the stars actually twinkled in the sky, when fairies would kiss your cheeks goodnight, when the pirate ships and flying boys would sail over your head, twisting through your strands of hair that spread around like oceanic waves, careening into the deep blue abyss of neverending dreams as you fluttered your eyes to sleep..
This song song reminds me of my 13th birthday. Because I woke up that morning and it suddenly dawned on me that I wasn’t a ‘child’ anymore but a teenager/adolescent. And I suddenly realised I was growing up, and realised that I just took my ‘childhood’ for granted. I was technically still a child though but I just felt like my childhood had mostly gone before my eyes. I am now 17 years old.
When I listen to this song, it makes me wanna go back to a time when I was a kid. I used to have a bunch of toys such as hot wheels, legos, remote control cars and planes, and the list goes on. As I grew up, I had to let those things go and start “acting my age”. I’m 25 years old right now, but the kid inside me has never gone away. I always say, enjoy the time you have as a kid because then eventually you gotta grow up
So relatable just the line 'I try' is like my life
I'm not a child now 🌙
I can take care of myself ⭐
I mustn't let them down now 🌠
I must not let them see me cry🌟
I'm fine, I'm fine🌛
I'm too tired to listen 🌕
I'm too old to believe 🌙
All these childish stories 🌚
There is no such thing as faith🌟
And trust and pixie dust 🌠
I try but its so hard to believe ☁️
I try but I can't see what you see 🌝
I try, I try, I try🌙
My whole world is changing🌘
I don't know where to turn 🌑
I can't leave you waiting🌒
But I can't stay and watch the city burn 🌉
Watch it burn🌅
'Cause I try but its so hard to believe 🌆
I try but I can't see what you see 🌌
I try, I try, I try⛼
And I try to understand the distance in between🌟
The love I feel 🌝
The things I fear 🌙
And every single dream 🌚
I can finally see it 🌕
Now I have to believe 🌘
All those precious stories 🌠
All the world is made of faith⭐
And trust and pixie dust ☄☄
So I'll try⚡
'Cause I finally believe🌠
I'll try🌟
'Cause I can see what you see 🌝
I'll try, I'll try, I will try🌚
I'll try🌘
To fly🌌🌌
Emoge
Peter Pan....pixie dust....childish nonsense!
This is super deep for a Disney song
I love the characterization of this character this is just beautiful Jane darling is my favorite character throughout the Peter Pan franchise so to see this is perfect
This song makes me sad and brings the weirdest nostalgia. Just brings me back to the thought of being a child and slowy realising I’m growing up
it's really amazing how much this song is basically Emma Swan's life in once upon a time!
Emma Swan
Yeah I don't know why I goofed there. fixed it though. Thanks
Ya$$$
It does i never even thought that
This song was made for her!
I was forced to grow up so quickly for so many reasons. My parents divorcing, being "gifted", looking older than I was, moving, so many things I couldn't even control. I never wanted to grow up, and I still wish I hadn't. I see the world for what it really is and I try to have hope, and Disney is really one of the only thing that can supply it. Especially Peter Pan.
A nostalgic memory is revisited everytime. Thank you
I always play this song when I wanna remember the times when I was younger. Wishing I could just go back...
When my parents would take me to rent a movie, I ALWAYS got return to Neverland because I loved this song. I used to rewind it over and over and cry along with it.
Oh god this just sent me down a rabbit hole of feelings. This is especially true as the only one in my family going to college and everything is changing and depending on me.
This song really did and still does touch my heart. I use to listen to it a lot after my Papa Phil's death. It was really hard and this song still reminds me of him after 4-5 years later.
This was such a beautiful song. One of my favorite Disney movie sequels
my mom sang this to me at bedtime as a kid! but she only knew the movie version so I was always left thinking that there must be more lyrics so today I found them. Yay me!
Yeeaah.
This reminds me of season 1, Emma Swan.
Kimberly Perez Not just season one either. Further on, even in neverland, she struggles. "Peter pan, really?". "Wicked witch? She's real too?' 'Says the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming'"
+Kimberly Perez You are right this song should enter Once Upon a Time for Emma's theme song!
for all fellow once upon a time fans! 😉
Kimberly Perez omg yes
I went from crying for not wanting to let my childhood self go to being okay with the lyrics like knowing it's okay to disappoint people (they'll be okay) and growing up is okay. Like I'm not a child anymore and being tired is okay and all I have to do is take things one a time. It's okay to reminisce and accepting that I can grow up mentally. It's hard for me thinking I'll turn like my abusive mom if I grew up. I was trapped in that mindset but it's okay now. I finally let myself take that leap and fly. ❤
i watched this movie over and over when i was a kid and this is literally the only song i can remember from the whole movie. now that i hear it i realise that it has way more feelings in the lyrics. it was my favourite movie when i was little and it brings back so much memorys and nastolgia.
This song just came into my head today so I thought maybe I should listen to it today.
Thank you so much, J. M. Barrie.
The year is 2024 and I still remember hearing this song for the first time with my younger cousins all around the tv, now we are all grown up and living in different countries I miss childhood glad I can come back and experience it again through this heart felt song ✨ 🧚♀️
Now that I graduate college... I feel mixed emotions. I have to say goodbye to leisure time and say hello to adulting.
Story of my life.. I can't leave you waiting, but I can't stay and watch the city burn".
This is what it's like losing your childhood
such a heart-touching to me :3 really love it!
beautiful
I just became a young military widow the day before yesterday, and a young widow TWICE now! On my BIRTHDAY, one month before our first--just our FIRST--wedding anniversary! This song is perfect portrayal of the emotional roller coaster of the military widowed
CHILDHOOD FEELS
I started listening to this song last last week and I've been listening to it everyday.
i sang this to my little sister the first time she felt heartbroken and gave up with trying to keep hope,it let her know she wasn't the only person dealing with that,and every time she's trying to give up I sing it to her,she does the same for me.
Always loved this song. Never forget parts of your childhood guys. Sometimes the best things when growing up are holding onto that child in your heart.
I really miss and appreciate this song.. it really touches my heart and my younger days. I love to go back when I was just a little kid..
this song is more and more relevant to the modern world, which says a lot as it speaks of events during WWII, a period we said we'd never return to yet the world is in a similar situation today as it was back then.
This song is such a great song. Underrated.
this was my fav movie when i was a kid and i listened to this song so many times that now i cry everytime i hear it because i watched the movie for the first time in my dad's office when i actually spent time with him, now we barely even talk the most he says to me is "pass the salt" when we're eating lunch.
Damn, many many years ago when I was like 5 or so, I remember this being the first song I'd ever cried to, and still hits hard.
This song used to have me in tears!!! I freaking love it!!!
I'm an adult and I love this song and I dedicated it to the gifted people and love ones in heaven, the one's with open minds. Believe my friends
I still hear this,to relieve my pain .. * *giggles* *
I sang this in a talent show and won
It hits so different when you're older..
That Disney font thoooooo😂wut
I'm so
freaking tired.
+Selena M I know, it's hard to read.
2019 I still love this one of my childhood movies. The lyrics hit me hard enough to cry.
It's not a childhood movie
@@elisabethsande7248 "*my* childhood movies."
I listen to this to remind myself that I do try in life and im not alone in my fight with depression. Can anyone relate?
Yeeesss.
I never watched this movie but remember loving it from the now that's Disney cd it was my favourite
my girlfriend and i were talking about peter pan and this song just came back to me and im sobbing 😭
Still love this song in 2019 and forever will
😢 this song always makes me cry
This song makes my day every day thanks for sharing ❤
This song makes me so emotional because even as a child I mean as old as six I was way to mature eldest of four and constantly being abused took its toll. By the time I was seven I was basically a mother. Cause even at that age when I watched Peter Pan I would be sad cause I knew I was too mature for neverland
Im 14 and had gone through shit that would of put adults in therapy. And on top of all the shit ive been through and is going through everyone wants me to put on a face and act grown because they cant! This song hits hard. I love it but it hits hard…
This song is so underrated!
This is one of my fav Disney songs~
This is me, growing up and trying to believe in Disney again when I have to face the real world instead 😐
By the way I love this song 💕
Omg I thought I had the same problem. I went through the same exact thing
I’ve been going through the same thing right now. I once tried to ask my friends to tone down the negative discussions about Disney, and one of them told me to basically “Grow up!” And recently I’ve been seeing all kinds of beloved childhood characters “twisted” in horrible ways. I can feel the painful despair trying to consume me. But there’s this small flickering light of hope that’s saying, “Don’t give up”
@@princesspixel3151 I am sorry for what happened to you. But as you said, there is always hope and you can find people that understand you and have the same interests as you.
Growing up is subjective, growing old is objective
We all still want to fly....so we all get up and give it a try.....but in the end we always cry as we gracefully fall from the bright starry night sky....holding onto the small piece of childhood we once had....now only to be memories that are sad....our hearts broken and ripped apart....now that we have all grown and the years have flown by....we won't believe in such things like faith, trust and pixie dust....even if we try....because we've realised it doesn't always last and that we all grew up way too fast....💔😞
This is so underrated like wtf
Omg that’s my comment from almost a year ago, so glad I decided to come back to this song 😭❤️
I miss Oregon since July 11, 2015 was the Last Day i lived there, Most of my Life was in Portland Oregon now it's Iowa.
"i'll always believe in you peter pan"
-Wendy
wow i was 5 when this movie came out. i was probably around 6 or 7 when i first watched it tho. disney movies really shaped my childhood
