Schoolbag in hand, she leaves

home in the early morning

Waving goodbye with

an absent minded smile
Waving goodbye with

an absent minded smile
I watch her go with a surge

ofthat well known sadness
And I have to sit

down for a while
ofthat well known sadness

And I have to sit

down for a while
While never really

entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can

share her laughter

That funny
little girl
Sleep in our eyes, her and

me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let

precious time go by
me at the breakfast table

Barely awake, I let

precious time go by
Barely awake, I let

precious time go by
Then when she's gone, there's

that old melancholy feeling
And a sense of

guiltl can't deny
wonderful adventures

The places I had

planned for us to go?
Sometimes I wish that
I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks

of time, Slipping through my fingers
And save it from the funny tricks

of time, Slipping through my fingers
of time, Slipping through my fingers
INSTRUMENTAL
