How You’ve Grown

[Intro]
"My, how you've grown."
I remember that phrase from the childhood days, too

[Verse 1]
"Just wait and see."
I remember those words and how they chided me
When patient was the hardest thing to be
Because we can't make up for the time that we've lost
I must let these memories provide
No little girl can stop her world to wait for me

[Verse 2]
I should have known
At your age, in a string of days the year is gone
But in that space of time, it takes so long
Because we can't make up for the time that we've lost
I must let those memories provide
No little girl can stop her world to wait for me

[Chorus]
Every time we say goodbye
You're frozen in my mind as the child that you never will be
You never will be again

(ohhhhhhhh)

[Tag]
I'll never be more to you than a stranger could be

[Chorus]
Every time we say goodbye
You're frozen in my mind as a child that you never will be
You never will be again

[Chorus]
Every time we say goodbye
You're frozen in my mind as the child that you never will be
Will be again
