We sow the seed and hope that it will grow 
We water it and wait for leaves to show 
And roots begin to hug the earth below 
You want everything you want it now 
You want to see the day before the dawn 
You want to hold the babe before it's born 

But I ... 
I don't want to hurry 
I don't want to hurry 
This sweet love of mine 
No I'll be there tomorrow 
And everyday will follow 
The sweet love of my life 

And given time the seed becomes a tree 
It's strong enough to stand the rain and wind 
It's big enough to shelter you and me 
You want everything you want it now 
You want to have the day before the dawn 
You want to learn to run before you crawl 

But I ... 
I don't want to hurry 
I don't want to hurry 
This sweet love of mine 
No I'll be there tomorrow 
And everyday will follow 
The sweet love of my life 

Can't we take our time 
Can't we wait and see 
I tell it to your heart babe 
Just go slow 

But I ... 
I don't want to hurry 
I don't want to hurry 
This sweet love of mine 
No I'll be there tomorrow 
And everyday will follow 
The sweet love of my life 

We sow the seed and hope that it will grow 
We water it and wait for leaves to show 
And roots begin to hug the earth below
