Time Flies

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Mama puts her daughter down sleep, she stands there for a while to watch her breathe. She prays the Lord her soul to keep, and asks him to bless her with his peace. And time flies but sometimes an hour lasts for years. Mama cries, a mix of sad and happy tears cause time flies Daughter grows up fast in her mother’s light, she takes the stage at the school play opening night. Daughter’s scared but everything’s alright, with mama on the front row beaming bright And time flies by but sometimes an hour lasts for years Mama cries, a mix of sad and happy tears cause time flies Then daughter becomes a mama, and mama grows old, Life circles round upon us as we tell the bedtime stories we’ve been told Daughter gets the call and catches a plane, Mama squeezes tight when she hears her name, Daughter holds her mama through the pain, the body’s weak but the spirit’s still the same And time flies, and thank God an hour lasts for years Daughter cries, a mix of sad and happy tears, Cause time flies Daughter puts her mama down sleep, she stands there for awhile to watch her breathe. She prays the Lord her soul to keep, and asks him to bless her with his peace
