Growing Closer to You - Charles D. Herold

When I met you I was six-foot seven

and you were four-foot two

Now both of us are five-feet five

and I'm growing closer to you

When I met you I could only speak German
And you could only speak Hebrew
Now both of us ar talking Yddish
And I'm growing closer to you
You used to suck on a lemon
While I'd eat a strawberry tart
Now both of us are eating sweet and sour shrimp
And no one can tell us apart

Well used to be none of your friends liked me
and all of my friends hated you
Now none of our friends like eaither of us
'Cause I'm growing closer to you

We used to fight argue and bit
And when we'd still disagree
And you throw something at me and you miss,
well then you move a little closer to me

Well, girls used to bring up my yellow streak
And you always used to feel blue
Now everyone is green with envy
'Cause I'm growing closer to you
Everyone is so envious
'Cause you're growing closer to me too
