Slipping Through My Fingers Lyrics
🎒 Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning 🌅🏫
👋 Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile 😊🚪
💔 I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness 🌧️😔
🪑 And I have to sit down for a while 🧘♂️🛋️
🌊 The feeling that I’m losing her forever ⏳🕰️
🚪 And without really entering her world 🗺️🔍
😄 I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter 😂❤️
👧 That funny little girl ✨
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
📸 I try to capture every minute ⏱️💖
💭 The feeling in it 🥹❤️
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
🧠 Do I really see what’s in her mind ❓🤯
🌱 Each time I think I’m close to knowing 🤏🌸
📈 She keeps on growing 📏👧➡️👩
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
😴 Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table 🍳🥞
🥱 Barely awake I let precious time go by ⏰⏳
😔 Then when she’s gone, there’s that odd melancholy feeling 🌫️🖤
😞 And a sense of guilt I can’t deny 💔🤐
🗺️ What happened to the wonderful adventures 🏔️✈️
📍 The places I had planned for us to go 🗺️🎯
🤷♂️ Well, some of that we did, but most we didn’t 🤷♀️❓
❓ And why, I just don’t know 💭🤔
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
📸 I try to capture every minute ⏱️💖
💭 The feeling in it 🥹❤️
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
🧠 Do I really see what’s in her mind ❓🤯
🌱 Each time I think I’m close to knowing 🤏🌸
📈 She keeps on growing 📏👧➡️👩
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
🧊 Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture 🖼️❄️
⏳ And save it from the funny tricks of time ⏰🪄
⏳ Slipping through my fingers… 🤌✨
⏳ Slipping through my fingers all the time 🤌✨
🎒 Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning 🌅🏫
👋 Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile 😊🚪
