Every now and then
I think of you
And where you might be now
My memories are just a version of the truth
I know you left in that northern breeze
When I grow up I wanna be
A picture of my mother holding onto me.
When I show up I wanna see
That some things are worth waiting for
I wanna be
Where did you go? I cannot see
Through your castles in the sky
Where the tiger lilies are blowing free
You might be waiting for me one more time
When I grow up I wanna be
A picture of my mother holding onto me
When I show up I wanna see
That some things are worth waiting for
I wanna be
Please won't you call me a rose?
I could be so sweet
Please won't you bring me a rose? Don't have to be so mean
La de da
When I grow up I wanna be
A picture of my mother holding onto me
When I show up I wanna see
That some things are worth waiting for
I wanna be
