You see, I'm all grown up now

He 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 up
But I can't let you go
If I let you go
You slip into the fog

This 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 swim

He 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 me

Is 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 now

Just put your feet down, child
The water is only waist high
I'll let go of you gently
Then you can swim to me
