You see, I'm all grown up nowHe said
"Just put your feet down, child
'Cause you're all grown up now"Just like a photograph
I pick you up
Just like a station on the radio
I pick you up
Just like a face in the crowd
I pick you up
Just like a feeling that you're sending out
I pick it upBut I can't let you go
If I let you go
You slip into the fogThis love was big enough for the both of us
This love of yours was big enough to be frightened of
It's deep and dark, like the water was
The day I learned to swimHe said
"Just put your feet down, child"Just put your feet down, child
The water is only waist high
I'll let go of you gently
Then you can swim to meIs this love big enough to watch over me?
Big enough to let go of me
Without hurting me
Like the day I learned to swim'Cause you're all grown up nowJust put your feet down, child
The water is only waist high
I'll let go of you gently
Then you can swim to me
