Lyrics
I dropped her at that college dorm went to my car and cried
When I got hit with the perfect storm of grief, and love, and pride
I’ll help her get where she’s going as long as I have breath
But the punch I took to the gut just now has got me remembering
The baby girl with the bone straight bangs
She was my whole world but now it’s changing
And I’m a wreck but I’m alright with that
The years went faster than I want
But nothing lasts if it did you don’t
Know how deep good can be without the bad
She was my baby, my little lady but I can’t ignore
That my baby girl is neither anymore
Her mothers eyes her grandpas smile she got her stubborn head
From her daddy’s side it’s no surprise she’s such a perfect mess
I’d buy her roses by but I know that she’d just roll her eyes
She didn’t wave as I drove away she knows I hate goodbyes
Br
Time goes by my heart tries
To live in every moment of this ride
