Time is running away with me
Seems like yesterday you came to be
As I laid there in that hospital bed
And grasped your fingers, kissed your head
Time is running away from me
I swear its minutes since two became three
The seasons change and the wind blows wild
But my heart beats for yours, my darling child
Time is running away from me
As we extend our family tree
When those big blue eyes look up to mine
I fear for the day you no longer rely
I feel like time is slipping away
My heart stumbles with each new day
As you grow and learn to one day fly
Oh how time can pass you by
