18 Summers 歌詞

One, we didn't sleep at all Two was footsteps down the hall Three, you're jumping to me in the pool Four was princess dressing up Five was tea in plastic cups Six, you got your backpack off to school Can't believe how fast it flies They always say don't blink, and now I know why Eighteen summers gone like that Eighteen years you don't get back Eighteen trips around the Sun, don't it make you wonder Why holding time's like holding sand Always slipping through my hands What I'd give to hold you for another Eighteen summers Oh, eighteen summers Seven was the Disney trip Eight was singing Taylor Swift Nine was bedtime prayers and saying: Jesus I believe Ten, eleven, like a weed you grew Twelve, thirteen, well, middle school Fourteen, high school's coming and you're way too cool for me Can't believe how fast it flies Eighteen summers gone like that Eighteen years you don't get back Eighteen trips around the Sun, don't it make you wonder Why holding time's like holding sand Always slipping through my hands What I'd give to hold you for another Eighteen summers Fifteen, first boy broke your heart Sixteen, driving daddy's car Seventeen, you're wild and free, and I'm waiting up for you Then there you stood, cap and gown And I'm smiling as I think about How every one before's what led us to Dorm room number 205 A grown man trying not to cry Can't wait to see all you're gonna do Your mom and me and two aching hearts Driving home in an empty car Thanking God for the gift of raising you For eighteen summers Eighteen summers
