lyrics

When you were a child you looked up to me
but I was the one down on my knees
watching the TV, playing along
laughing together and singing our song

You asked your questions, why? how? and when?
Who knows what? and Who knows when?
fantasy schemes, hopes and dreams
we grew up together, if you know what I mean

time kept on moving but it felt just the same
I watched you grow taller through your growing pains
I know you still love me but it’s hard to explain
how the distance between us feeds my growing pains
these old growing pains

What of the future? What of the past?
when everything changes, the die is not cast
We can never stop growing, there’s no standing still
life is for living we have dreams to fulfil

Now and again I feel close to the end,
but who knows where? and Who knows when?
In the dark of night when there’s nowhere to hide
I wonder who is the parent? And who is the child?

Keep singing your song, with that simple refrain
loving and losing’s just a growing pain
and changes between us are part of the game
and the lessons I’m learning from these old growing pains
these growing old pains
