I know for me to grow up
You've gotta grow up too
You watched me grow up
But sometimes I feel like I'm not strong enough to watch you grow up too

So can I hold the hand of time
So I can meet you in the middle and we can grow side by side
Cause they always talk about when you become a parent too
But somehow nobody warns you that it's equally as hard to watch your parents grow up too

They say when you've got babies
That watching them growing up will be the most beautiful and heartbreaking thing that you'll ever have to go through
And I don't have babies quite yet
All I've got is you
So I guess watching you grow up will be the hardest thing I've gotta do

So can I hold the hand of time
So I can meet you in the middle and we can grow side by side
Cause they always talk about when you become a parent too
But somehow nobody warns you that it's equally as hard to watch your parents grow up too

I'm watching the gray hairs come in
And watching you cover them up with a box of dye
But I know it's not changing the fact that you're aging right before my eyes
And somehow nobody warns you about how hard it's gonna be
To watch your parents grow older right before your eyes

So I wish I could hold the hand of time
So I could meet you in the middle
So we could grow side by side
Because when we were kids we prayed to hurry and grow up quick
But I wondered if we'd pray nearly as hard if we realized
Growing older means watching your parents grow up too

I know for me to grow up
You've gotta grow up too
You've watched me grow up
But sometimes I feel like I'm not strong enough to watch you grow up too
