How You've Grown

My how you've grown I remember that phrase
 From my childhood days too,"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
 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 these memories provide
 No little girl can stop her world to wait for me
 Every time we say goodbye
 You're frozen in my mind
 As the child that you'll never will be
 You never will be again
 I'll never be
 Be more to you than a stranger could be
 Every time we say goodbye
 You're frozen in my mind
 As the child that you'll never will be
 You'll never will be again
 Every time we say goodbye
 You're frozen in my mind
 As the child that you'll never will be
 Will be again
