"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 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 never  will be,
 you never will  be again.
Every  time we say  goodbye
you're  frozen in  my mind as the child  that you never  will be,
will  be again.
