Well I took you for a walk up on the forest floor
'Cause I wanted to share some things
But it sure looked to me like you've been there before
It was such a natural thing

You're my girl (My girl)
And you're showing me now
Just how grown up you are
You're my girl (My girl)
And I'll be lettin' you go someday

Please don't tell me that you're leavin' me just yet
Cause I know I gotta let you go (Let you go)
Please don't tell me that you're sayin' goodbye (Say good bye)

Well I lit a candle on the Fourth of July
But it didn't bring you home to me
You went headin' into summer on a natural high
With the world at your feet

It's your time (Your time)
And you're showin' me now
Just how grown up you are
It's your time (Your time)
And I'll be lettin' you go someday

Please don't tell me that you're leavin' me just yet
Cause I know I gotta let you go (Let you go)
Please don't tell me that you're sayin' goodbye (Say goodbye)

We went lookin' for faith on the forest floor
And it showed up everywhere
In the sun and the water and the falling leaves
The falling leaves of time

You're my girl (My girl)
And you're showing me now
Just how grown up you are
You're my girl (My girl)
And I'll be lettin' you go someday

Please don't tell me that you're leavin' me quite yet
Cause I know I gotta let you go
Please don't tell me that you're sayin' goodbye
