Would You Look How Far We've Come?!

I remember this one night when you and I were only 5.
It was my birthday and we went on a pony ride.
Would you look how far we've come, would you look how far we've come since then?

And I remember when we were ten, we'd dress alike and say that we were twins.
We'd take lots of pictures in our matching dresses, and write crazy tales of our great adventures.
Would you look how far we've come, would you look how far we've come since then?

It seems like just yesterday when we were 19, went on our first trip to New York City.
We ran through the streets in our dresses and heels, we were late for the play, but we were laughing all the way!
Would you look how far we've come, would you look how far we've come since then?

In the blink of an eye, I'm 21 and your 22, we're nearly done with school.
And here we are about to say goodbye, grab those diplomas and get on with our lives.
Would you look how far we've come, would you look how far we've come since then?

Well, I hope one day when I'm 85, you'll be sittin playing bingo in the chair across from mine.
And we'll tell all the people at the nursing home that we've been friends forever, we've watched eachother grow...

From ballet class to Mary-Kate and Ash-ley.
We've seen it all together, seen it all together.

From church musicals to Broadway shows.
We've seen it all together, seen it all together.

From roller coaster rides to cross country flights.
We've seen it all together, seen it all together.

From broken hearts to broken cars.
We've seen it all together, seen it all together.

From kindergarten to college graduation.
We've seen it all together, seen it all together.

It's been nearly 20 years, and I look forward to 20, 40, 60 more of them.
