Then They Do Lyrics

Then They Do lyrics

In the early rush of morning

Trying to get the kids to school

One's hanging on my shirttail

Another's locked up

In her room

And I'm yelling up the stairs

Stop worrying 'bout your hair

You look fine



Then they're fightin' in the backseat

I'm playing referee

Now someone's gotta go

The moment that we leave

And everybody's late

I swear that I can't wait

'Till they grow up



Chorus:



Then they do

And that's how it is

It's just quiet in the morning

Can't believe

How much you miss

All they do

And all they did

You want all the dreams

They dreamed of

To come true

Then they do



Now the youngest is starting college

She'll be leavin' in the Fall

And Brianna's latest boyfriend

Called to ask if we could talk

And I got the impression

That he's about to pop the question any day



I look over at their pictures

Sittin' in their frames

I see them as babies

I guess that'll never change

You pray all their lives

That someday they will find happiness



(Repeat Chorus)



No more Monday PTA's

No carpools

Or soccer games

Your work is done

Now you've got time

That's all your own

You've been waitin' for so long

For those days to come



(Repeat Chorus)
