You keep on changing
Each time we wake up, yeah, you've grown
You're passing me by
If you're a car, I'm the side of the road
And I keep on thinking
That someday you won't have to go
I'm holding you tight
Like I'll fall through the sky if I let go
You're learning too fast
And I wish I could make it go slow
I'm watching the sunset
Before I can blink it's so low
You're living your best life
Right now, I wish I could let you know
It's a dream to be with you
These days, while I teach you the ropes
I'd like to be sure of the end
Before we get too close
But I've learned enough now
I know someone who's holding us both
I'd give you the shirt off my back
And the last thing I own
You won't understand
Until someday you've got kids of your own
And I never believed
All the people that say
Slow down, cause it moves too fast
I can hardly believe
That I'll look back one day
And wish I could take it all back
Because the days, they feel long
But the years come up short
When you keep your head down for too long
And I keep on noticing
Things that I keep missing
My child, forgive me for that
Ohhh
I keep on noticing
Things that I keep missing
My child, forgive me for that
