How do you like the world so far?
Where'd you get that smile?
I know that you've got a lot to do
But won't you sit with me a while?
Time is on your side
So why don't you go slow?
I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow
Would you believe I was once your age
Not so long ago?
Funny how gray hairs start to show
At least that's what I'm told
I look at you and wonder
Where, oh, where does the time go?
And I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow
Do you believe in magic?
Do you believe that dreams come true?
Do you believe in fairy tales?
Would you believe that I do too?
This is a special time in your life
I'd like to share with you
I know that we could be best of friends
Don't you think so, too?
Let me tell you one more time
Before you have to go
I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow
I'd like to get to know you
Before you grow
