I was laughing Playing in the streets, I was unknowing I didn't know my fate Playing The game of love, but never really showing I thought that love could wait I was a young girl and sure to go astray You walked right into my life and told me love would find a way Gonna keep on growing, keep on growing Gonna Keep on growing I was standing Looking in the face of one who loved me Feeling so ashamed Hoping And praying, Lord, that he could understand me But I didn't know his name He took my hand in his and told me I was wrong He said, you're gonna be all right girl, oh just as long Gonna keep on growing, keep on growing Gonna keep on growing, yeah, yeah, yeah Maybe Someday baby, who knows where or when, Lord Just you wait and see We'll be walking Together hand in hand, alone forever Man just you and me 'Cause time is gonna change us, Lord, and I know it's true Our love is gonna keep on glowing and growing and it's all we gotta do Keep on growing, gonna keep on growing Gonna keep on growing, yeah, yeah, yeah Gonna keep on growing, keep on growing Gonna keep on growing, yeah, yeah, yeah Gonna keep on growing Gonna keep on growing Gonna keep on growing Gonna keep on growing
