Before You Grow

How do you like the world so far
Where'd you get that smile
I know that you've got a lot to do
But won't you sit with me awhile

Time is on your side
So why don't you go slow?
I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow

Would you believe I was once your age
Not so long ago
Funny how gray hairs start to show
At least that's what I'm told

I look at you and wonder
Where oh where does the time go
And I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow

Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe that dreams come true?
Do you believe in fairy tales?
Would you believe that I do too?

This is a special time in your life
I'd like to share with you
I know that we could be best of friends
Don't you think so, too

Let me tell you one more time
Before you have to go
I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow

I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow
