I remember when you used to hide behind your silly hair It fell around your face so wildly, but you didn't seem to care You always liked to play detective, Nancy Drew was your escape Social skills perhaps defective, dressed up your own kind of way You've become a new creation I don't want to miss out on It's so sweet to see you make it on your own from duck to swan Certain words you mispronounced, 'cause you'd only read their form Never spoke too many sounds, you're building up a quiet storm You've become a new creation I don't want to miss out on It's so sweet to see you make it on your own from duck to swan Your first drink and your first straw Your first kiss and your first love Now you've finally found your voice Any child made love a choice You've become a new creation I don't want to miss out on It's so sweet to see you make it on your own from duck to swan You've become a new creation I don't want to miss out on It's so sweet to see you make it on your own from duck to swan You've become a new creation I don't want to miss out on It's so sweet to see you make it on your own from duck to swan
