10000 Maniacs - How You’ve Grown lyrics

[ merchant ]<br><br>[ viola: mary ramsey ]<br><br>My, how you've grown.<br>I remember that phrase from my childhood days too.<br>Just wait and see.<br>I remember those words and how they chided me, when patient was the hardest thing to be.<br>Because we can't make up for the time that we've lost, I must let these memories provide.<br>No little girl can stop her world to wait for me.<br><br>I should have known.<br>At your age, in a string of days the year is gone.<br>But in that space of time, it takes so long.<br>Because we can't make up for the time that we've lost, I must let those memories provide.<br>No little girl can stop her world to wait for me.<br><br>Every time we say goodbye you're frozen in my mind as the child that you never will be, you never will be again.<br>I'll never be more to you than a stranger could be.<br><br>Every time we say goodbye you're frozen in my mind as a child that you never will be, will be again.
