Scraping knees, tying shoes,
Starting school, paying dues,
Finding there's no way
We can spend a lifetime playing ball
Part of getting tall.

Learning more knowing less,
Simple words, tenderness part of getting tall.

You're not crazy, you're all right
Everyone wants everyone in sight…
But knowing you have no one if you try to have them all
Is part of tying shoes,
Part of staring school
Part of scraping knees if we should fall
Part of getting tall.
