Watch it

You'll climb that maple-tree so high

That you won't find your way back to the ground

Watch it

You'll dump that pedal-bike for goodness sakes

If you don't learn to hit them brakes more than you do now

And watch it with your tone

When you butt heads with mama

You don't run this home

Run around it all you want, 'cause it's your safe place

To be exactly who you are

You won't always have it easy, but you'll always have our hearts

They say take life one day at a time and I'm tryin'

But it's flyin'

The world spins 'round and there's no way to bottle the lightnin'

Or rewind it

You're growing up so fast and I wish so bad that I could stop it

But baby, I'm so glad that I'm the one who gets the chance

To watch it

When you first drive a car, yeah, that's the start of a lot of sleepless nights around here

And I'll watch it

Slowly fall apart when someone breaks your heart

And I can't do a thing to stop them tears

For now we're busy laughing at whatever's on T.V

Someday it'll happen, you'll be too cool for me

They say take life one day at a time and I'm tryin'

But it's flyin'

The world spins 'round and there's no way to bottle the lightnin'

Or rewind it

You're growing up so fast and I wish so bad that I could stop it

But baby, I'm so glad that I'm the one who gets the chance

To watch it

God, I love to watch it

So tonight I'm going to soak it in, and let you hug me all you want

'Cause memories last forever, but moments don't last long

They say take life one day at a time and I'm tryin'

But it's flyin'

The world spins 'round and there's no way to bottle the lightnin'

Or rewind it

You're growing up so fast and I wish so bad that I could stop it

But baby, I'm so glad that I'm the one who gets the chance

To watch it

God, I love to watch it

Watch it
