In the early rush of morning, |
| [00:26.04] |
Trying to get the kids to school: |
| [00:29.18] |
One's hanging on my shirt-tail, |
| [00:31.79] |
Another's locked up in her room. |
| [00:34.85] |
And I'm yelling up the stairs: |
| [00:38.04] |
"Stop worrying 'bout your hair, you look fine." |
| [00:43.56] |
|
| [00:48.40] |
Then they're fightin' in the backseat, |
| [00:51.05] |
And I'm playing referee. |
| [00:54.25] |
Now someone's gotta go, |
| [00:57.63] |
The moment that we leave. |
| [01:00.90] |
And everybody's late, |
| [01:04.02] |
I swear that I can't wait till they grow up. |
| [01:10.33] |
|
| [01:13.68] |
Then they do, and that's how it is. |
| [01:19.74] |
It's just quiet in the mornin', |
| [01:22.88] |
Can't believe how much you miss, |
| [01:26.20] |
All they do and all they did. |
| [01:32.78] |
You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true: |
| [01:39.19] |
Then they do. |
| [01:44.32] |
|
| [01:46.08] |
Now the youngest is starting college, |
| [01:48.95] |
She'll be leavin' in the Fall. |
| [01:51.42] |
And Brianna's latest boyfriend, |
| [01:55.09] |
Called to ask if we could talk. |
| [01:58.13] |
And I got the impression, |
| [02:01.64] |
That he's about to pop the question any day. |
| [02:06.81] |
|
| [02:11.48] |
I look over at their pictures, |
| [02:14.35] |
Sittin' in their frames. |
| [02:17.21] |
I see them as babies: |
| [02:20.67] |
I guess that'll never change. |
| [02:23.92] |
You pray all their lives, |
| [02:27.32] |
That someday they will find happiness. |
| [02:33.02] |
|
| [02:36.55] |
Then they do, and that's how it is. |
| [02:42.86] |
It's just quiet in the mornin', |
| [02:46.20] |
Can't believe how much you miss, |
| [02:49.39] |
All they do and all they did. |
| [02:55.92] |
You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true: |
| [03:02.30] |
Then they do. |
| [03:08.80] |
|
| [03:10.34] |
No more Monday PTA's, |
| [03:13.55] |
No carpools, or soccer games. |
| [03:18.79] |
Your work is done. |
| [03:22.14] |
Now you've got time that's all your own. |
| [03:24.60] |
You've been waitin' for so long, |
| [03:31.14] |
For those days to come. |
| [03:36.36] |
|
| [03:37.20] |
Then they do, and that's how it is. |
| [03:42.75] |
It's just quiet in the mornin', |
| [03:45.61] |
Can't believe how much you miss, |
| [03:49.04] |
All they do and all they did. |
| [03:55.76] |
You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true: |
| [04:02.01] |
Then they do. |
| [04:07.69] |
|
| [04:10.71] |
Ah, then they do. |
