Look how you’ve grown

Wise and warm and wonderful

A young child left home

A young child left home

I drive away

Leave you to the gentle rain

I wanted to stay

I wanted to stay

One short yesterday

We drove to the sun

Now I’m losing you

Unpack your case

And place my love beside your bed

I’m driving away

I’m driving away

I’m driving away
