lyrics

You should see her now
She is so much older
Her hair is longer as it's getting colder
I still remember

December on the beach in the middle of summer
Sand between our toes
Heads going under
I was trapped in a dream

You said that you didn't want to go
I knew that I was caught with those 3 words

You should see her now she's so much taller
Her legs sturdy as she's running faster
She now loves the water

Cuddles in the bed in the middle of winter
My memories of you are now getting thinner
You were the first one

You said that you didn't want to go
I knew that I was caught with those 3 words
You left me as the rain came pouring down
I'm lucky if I even make a sound

You should see her now she is so much stronger
She’s moved on out and gone onwards
She’ll never remember

You said that you didn't want to go
I knew that I was caught with those 3 words
You left me as the rain came pouring down
I'm lucky if I can still make a sound
