Lyrics
Ya know
At first I didn’t have any confidence
Couple years down the road
And now I’m thinking that I kinda get it
My mind goes a mile a minute
I know the clock is ticking
But I’m feeling like the time is sprinting
They say the cliché is don’t blink
Cause at a moment’s notice you could miss the whole thing
I’m trying to hone in to witness y’all growing
And I hope that I show you how much you both mean
The long nights are worth it cause both of you are perfect
Even if I’m dozing the next morning when I’m workin
I’m certain that I’ve actually gotten off kinda easy
Cause both your personalities usually pretty peachy
Scrolling through the photos on my phone
Getting misty eyed when I see how much you’ve grown
And right before my eyes, there you go changing again
Lemme put this phone down, y’all want me to play pretend
Let’s go
I wish that I could travel through time
Cause things change in the blink of an eye
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t wanna forget this
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t wanna forget this
If only I could travel through time
And replay all these moments in my life
I won’t, I won’t, I won’t ever forget this
I won’t, I won’t, I won’t ever forget this
Picture or it didn’t happen you know men’ll lie
Revisionist history when we compartmentalize
We say our childhood was the best
The back in my days just had my kids looking at me sideways
I had to adjust learn to get caught up in the moment spend energy now
Informed past to making memories now
Take you to see your favorite artists though it’s finna be crowds
I want a beach and a towel they wanting Mickey the mouse okay
Road trip going smoother that some oil of olay
I guess it’s something about the wide open space that shows me the possibilities
Free to move about laying down in a field while we look up at the clouds
Still I wonder how time moves so quickly
Hoping yall can look back and see my love so vividly
And when you grow well past your forties hope i live
To hear you tell these stories to your kids
Hold tight my love cause
I wish that I could travel through time
Cause things change in the blink of an eye
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t wanna forget this
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t wanna forget this
If only I could travel through time
And replay all these moments in my life
I won’t, I won’t, I won’t ever forget this
I won’t, I won’t, I won’t ever forget this
