Grow

grow, little boy grow
pull yourself up strong
grow little boy grow
I’v been here all along

remember to open her door
hold her close like no man
has ever done before
if she gets cold, take off your coat
you may shiver in the rain
but you’ll know she’s warm

and if you take your time
you may find a place
you’ve never been before
but you know you’ve changed
so please don’t rush, just take it slow
listen to your heart
and I’ll watch you..

grow, little boy grow
pull yourself up strong
grow little boy grow
I’v been here all along

all the silly fights never let them
get between you, be her rock
when she needs a rock
if you know she’s wrong
pretend she’s right and kiss her
till your lips get sore

and if you take your time
you may find a place
you’ve never been before
but you know you’ve changed
so please don’t rush, just take it slow
listen to your heart
and I’ll watch you..

grow, little boy grow
pull yourself up strong
grow little boy grow
I’v been here all along

and the tree in your room, just above your cot
yeah now you’re small but you’ll grow up
and the tree that seemed so scary big
well you’ll be touching the top with your fingertips

grow, little boy grow
pull yourself up strong
grow little boy grow
your fathers been here all along
grow, little more grow
your mothers been here all along
grow, little boy grow
we have been here all along
