Being There As You Grow

Verse 1

Every day

Remember

you so small               

and smiley

Playing with trains

Choo Choo                             

Urging them on   

to go faster!

Every day

you’re changing

expressions 

delighting 

 

Chorus

Hold on to                                          

memories                               

Being there

as you grow

Every day

Brings something new

We will be

there for you

Yes, we are here                                

helping you

find your way                                                 

as you grow

 

Verse 2

Spending time            

together

The two of us                                                             

excited

A trip to the stores

searching 

Trendy new shirt

In purple

Something new

together 

Chat about

the future

 

Bridge

Parties and games

with your little friends                       

chasing around

lost and found            

Sleeping lions

and Goodie bags

patter of feet

hide and seek

 

Verse 3

Model cars                             

for racing

Supercharged                         

we’re speeding

The days flashing by              

so special

And nothing lasts

forever

I hope you’ll share  

your laughter

sense of fun

and adventure
