These are the Days (feat. Amy Grant)
Hospital, home was a four-minute drive
The baby on board made it 35
We didn't sleep a wink that night
Just laid by that crib, singing nursery rhymes
And these are the days that we'll want back
The kindergarten drop-off line
His first day of school didn't even cry
And that was when we knew that life
Had a funny way of just passing us by
And these are the days that we'll want back
So tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
Darling, before we know it, this ol' house will be quiet
I know we're tired right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's slow it down and raise a glass
'Cause these are the days that we'll want back
It took us a day to build that bike
Feel like we only got a minute to watch them ride
Juggling dinner, school, and practice times
Just tryna make it through to that glass of cheap wine
And these are the days we'll want back, we'll want back
So tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
Darling, before we know it, this ol' house will be quiet
I know we're tired right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's slow it down and raise a glass
'Cause these are the days that we'll want back
And all of the countless, crazy, sleepless nights
All of the first and the last and the tears that we cry
All of the "How does this work, Dad?" and "Mom, tell me why"
Sometimes growing up feels like goodbye (goodbye)
There was a time when we were your world
And now you're moving on to marry your girl
So buy your house, and call it home
And give her a life, and some kids of her own
Tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
'Cause before you know it, that ol' house will be quiet
I know you're wild right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's raise a glass and toast to that
'Cause we'll always be your mom and dad
And these are the days that we'll want back
Want 'em back, want 'em back
The baby on board made it 35
We didn't sleep a wink that night
Just laid by that crib, singing nursery rhymes
And these are the days that we'll want back
The kindergarten drop-off line
His first day of school didn't even cry
And that was when we knew that life
Had a funny way of just passing us by
And these are the days that we'll want back
So tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
Darling, before we know it, this ol' house will be quiet
I know we're tired right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's slow it down and raise a glass
'Cause these are the days that we'll want back
It took us a day to build that bike
Feel like we only got a minute to watch them ride
Juggling dinner, school, and practice times
Just tryna make it through to that glass of cheap wine
And these are the days we'll want back, we'll want back
So tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
Darling, before we know it, this ol' house will be quiet
I know we're tired right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's slow it down and raise a glass
'Cause these are the days that we'll want back
And all of the countless, crazy, sleepless nights
All of the first and the last and the tears that we cry
All of the "How does this work, Dad?" and "Mom, tell me why"

And give her a life, and some kids of her own
Tell 'em bedtime stories, give 'em a kiss goodnight
'Cause before you know it, that ol' house will be quiet
I know you're wild right now, someday we'll laugh about it
Let's raise a glass and toast to that
'Cause we'll always be your mom and dad
And these are the days that we'll want back
Want 'em back, want 'em back
