They Grow Up Too Fast
Wasn't it just yesterday
I felt your skin on mine
Held you in my arms
Fell in love a billion times
From craw to walk
First breath to talk
To letting go of that bike
With the training wheels off
Oh, but watch that clock
Those hands they never stop
Give me a replay, give me a rewind
If there's a way to slow down time
Someone show me how
Make it right now
How do you hold on
To the moments
That are here and gone, man, before you know it
It's all in the past
Slippin' through the cracks
Never gonna get 'em back
So while you got 'em
Make 'em last
'Cause they grow up too fast
Toy cars and trains
Tee ball and soccer games
To a shy first kiss
Just a little off aim
Tossing you the keys and saying a prayer
Crying as your tassel flies through the air
And just like that
All your bags are packed
Give me a replay, give me a rewind
If there's a way to slow down time
Someone show me how
Make it right now
How do you hold on
To the moments
That are here and gone, man, before you know it (before you know it)
It's all in the past
Slippin' through the cracks
Never gonna get 'em back
So while you got 'em
Make 'em last
'Cause they grow up too fast
Give me a replay, give me a rewind
If there's a way to slow down time
Someone show me how
Yeah, how about right now
How do you hold on
To the moments
That are here and gone, man, before you know it (before you know it)
It's all in the past
Slippin' through the cracks
Never gonna get 'em back
So while you got 'em
Make 'em last
'Cause they grow up too fast
Too fast, yeah
I felt your skin on mine
Held you in my arms
Fell in love a billion times
From craw to walk
First breath to talk
To letting go of that bike
With the training wheels off
Oh, but watch that clock
Those hands they never stop
Give me a replay, give me a rewind
If there's a way to slow down time
Someone show me how
Make it right now
How do you hold on
To the moments
That are here and gone, man, before you know it
It's all in the past
Slippin' through the cracks
Never gonna get 'em back
So while you got 'em
Make 'em last
'Cause they grow up too fast

To a shy first kiss
Just a little off aim
Tossing you the keys and saying a prayer
Crying as your tassel flies through the air
And just like that

'Cause they grow up too fast
Too fast, yeah
