He didn't have to wake up, he'd been up all night Lyin' there in bed and listenin' to his new born baby cry He makes a pot of coffee, he splashes water on his face His wife gives him a kiss and says it gonna be okay It won't be like this for long One day soon we'll look back laughin' At the week we brought her home This phase is gonna fly by, so baby just hold on It won't be like this for long Four years later 'bout four thirty she's crawling in their bed And when he drops her off at pre-school she's clinging to his leg The teacher peels her off of him, he says, 'What can I do?' She says, 'Now don't you worry this will only last a week or two' It won't be like this for long One day soon you'll drop her off And she won't even know you're gone This phase is gonna fly by if you can just hold on It won't be like this for long Someday soon she'll be a teenager and at times he'll think she hates him Then he'll walk her down the aisle and raise her veil But right now, she up and cryin'and the truth is that he don't mind As he kisses her good night and she says her prayers He lays down there beside her till her eyes are finally closed And just watchin' her it breaks his heart 'cause he already knows It won't be like this for long One day soon that little girl is gonna be all grown up and gone Yeah, this phase is gonna fly by, so he's tryin' to hold on 'Cause it won't be like this for long, it won't be like this for long © EMI APRIL MUSIC INC.; NEW SEA GAYLE MUSIC; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
