When the artwork on the frig
Has been put away
Can't find the crayons and the fingerpaints
So I'll treasure the time before it's too late
'Cause you're growing up
You're growing up
I remember when I rocked you
To sleep each night
Held you in my arms and sang a lullaby
I know some day I'll have to say goodbye
'Cause you're growing up
You're growing up
Someday I'll wish I could rock you again
Hold you tight but until then
I'll chase your fears, wipe your tears away
You are God's precious gift to us
I pray His hand you'll take and trust
'Cause you're growing up, growing up
Some days I say, "C'mon" and "Hurry, let's go"
Or, "Wait a minute," then I'm on the phone
There's so little time, so know that I love you so
'Cause you're growing up,
Growing up
