Getting up this early's not so hard when I'm with you We walk to the railroad tracks and back under the bridge I know when I'm older that I wanna be like you I know when I'm all grown up I'll know just what to do Like you Like you do When we'd clear the driveway you would let me wear your mitt When we'd drive in parking lots you'd let me take a turn You were tall as towers with your thoughts above the clouds You were always strong Or was it strong that you became? You became It's truly something beautiful That I am now the same age that you were When I was only just a boy With no idea about the world Thought you were superman I thought you were invincible At least you've always been that way for me
