Growing Out Of It

A hopeful acoustic pop song about in-toeing and out-toeing, which start at the hip rather than the foot and quietly unwind on their own as a child grows.

Lyrics

Verse

Pigeon toes crossing the kitchen floor

Duck feet turning right out the door

It starts at the hip, not down at the toes

And quietly, slowly, it unwinds as you go

Chorus

You're growing out of it, growing right out of it

Nothing to fix and nothing to force

Time does the work while you're busy with living

You're growing out of it, love, of course

Verse

I'll mark it down here on the back of the door

A number in autumn, a number once more

Not what it looks like, but which way it's bound

That's the only thing worth writing down

Chorus

You're growing out of it, growing right out of it

Nothing to fix and nothing to force

Time does the work while you're busy with living

You're growing out of it, love, of course

Outro

Growing out of it

And on you go
