Verse One:

Now the years have passed and it seems I’ve grown so fast but loving you is something I can’t outgrow.

All along I knew this day would come, now you’re gone. But it seemed too soon to say goodbye to you.

Now looking back on all you taught me. I hope you’re smiling over me.

And when I cry from time to time I swear I can feel you wipe away my tears…
