Slipping Through My Fingers - Bruno Coulais[00:00:00]
Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning[00:00:03]
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile[00:00:08]
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness[00:00:17]
And I have to sit down for a while[00:00:24]
The feeling that I'm losing her forever[00:00:30]
And without really entering her world[00:00:33]
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter[00:00:44]
That funny little girl[00:00:50]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:00:54]
I try to capture every minute[00:00:57]
The feeling in it[00:01:02]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:01:03]
Do I really see what's in her mind[00:01:03]
Each time I think I'm close to knowing[00:01:11]
She keeps on growing[00:01:16]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:01:17]
Sleep in our eyes her and me at the breakfast table[00:01:27]
Barely awake I let precious time go by[00:01:32]
Then when she's gone there's that odd melancholy feeling[00:01:37]
And a sense of guilt I can't deny[00:01:42]
What happened to the wonderful adventures[00:01:50]
The places I had planned for us to go[00:02:01]
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)[00:02:09]
Well some of that we did but most we didn't[00:02:11]
And why I just don't know[00:02:15]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:02:24]
I try to capture every minute[00:02:33]
The feeling in it[00:02:36]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:02:40]
Do I really see what's in her mind[00:02:47]
Each time I think I'm close to knowing[00:02:51]
She keeps on growing[00:02:57]
Slipping through my fingers all the time[00:02:59]
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture[00:03:03]
And save it from the funny tricks of time[00:03:18]
Slipping through my fingers[00:03:23]
Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning[00:03:24]
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile[00:03:25]
End[00:03:25]
