And so
Look how far you've grown
You trace a child's chalk shape in the light of a fading sundown
As tears race across your face
And outline the ageing changes in your shadow
Where did that child go?
(Where did he go?)
Let me tell you, he's inside you
(He's inside)
There is no sundown for he holds a candlelight he hopes
Shall guide you

And so
What have you lost?
Yes you're older and there's paths you've passed in the past behind you
But you'll never see the sun of day without goodnighting the stars adieu
And those stars are waiting to see just what you do
Watching, glinting, wise, unblinking
Like the eyes of the child you hold hands with beside you
You two haven't changed
Constellations merely rearrange

I cannot see my face in these old photos
All stars begin, before they grow to supernovas
These fading frames are flaked in dusty chagrin
Before each sunrise, a sunset must explode

(What you want is lost...)

And so
Believe in reprise
You've learned and grown, but you are still the same child
As sure as your dreams live, there shall be sun tomorrow
You're older
But you've got time

You've got time
You've got time
To get better
(So much better)
You've got time
(All the time)
To get better
(So much better)
