sprouts

I've seen all of your phases

All of your sprouts of time

The cut up knees and tearfuls

That made you sharp as knives

I know you'll grow before me

The embers will survive

A flame that flickers lonely

One day will shine

You, you've got a hand full of memories

You've got a place in your heart

You've got time, got a place to be

Somewhere to start

You, you don't know where you're going

But you know who you are

Yeah you know you wanna be

When you gotta start

And we'll go down roads nobody knows

We'll find ourselves in everybody else

I don't think I'd be who I am without you

Without you

I feel so inadequate in everything I do

Make all the pieces of me

Go through the loop-de-loops

Maybe when we're both older

I'll find a place to be

To sit and grow and nurture

The sprouts in me

You, you've got a hand full of memories

You've got a place in your heart

You've got time, got a place to be

Somewhere to start

You, you don't know where you're going

But you know who you are

Yeah you know you wanna be

When you gotta start

And we'll go down roads nobody knows

We'll find ourselves in everybody else

I don't think I'd be who I am without you

Without you

Hand in hand, we'll find each other

Maybe as we both get older

Maybe wiser, maybe stronger

Hand in hand, we'll find each other

Maybe as we both get older

Maybe wiser, maybe stronger
