Time Slips Away

I recall the night you were born
It started like another day
The Beatles were playing their songs
While Grandmother looked on and prayed

We had so much love to give to you
Each moment that we had we'd spend with you
But time slips away

Then you're running off to school
To help you learn those golden rules
Your teachers would often say
She'll change the world one day

She has so much love to give to you
Everyone that knows her knows it's true

I can tell you from experience, day after day
Don't let life get in the way, of being amazed
Like I did with you
Like I do with you

Playing music all day long
Then I'd come home and hear your songs
Your brother and you would play
Building castles in the sand all day

I don't know if you can understand
Why everywhere we walked I'd hold your hand
'Cause time slips away

Soon I know you'll be gone
To start a family of your own
Precious times will come your way
Hold on to them every day
Like I did with you
Like I do with you
Like I did with you
Like I do with you
