Growing up, I'm growing old
But I never seem to find
The courage to fit the mould
I'm speeding up but I will stop

I will stop to read the papers
And buy her flowers

This is just the start of the road
Just the tip of your toe
A day in amazement
All this knowing that I won't last

Not giving up, not letting go
I'm not parting with
The memories that we know
Just where we'll end up I don't know
I will stop to read
The papers and buy her flowers

I know this
I've noticed the seasons more now
And I've come to show you
I can hold a steady ship
I won't stop, no I won't stop
