Growing up, getting older, Watching as I grow taller, And you grow shorter. I used to be at your thigh, Now I'm the one with all the height. Growing up, getting older, Realizing that I won't always have your shoulder, To lean on, One day I'll be on my own.

Your Shoulder
Growing up, getting older, Watching as I grow taller, And you grow shorter. I used to be at your thigh, Now I'm the one with all the height. Growing up, getting older, Realizing that I won't always have your shoulder, To lean on, One day I'll be on my own.
