Years - Beth Nielsen Chapman[00:00:00]
Written by:Beth Nielsen Chapman[00:00:01]
I went home for Christmas[00:00:23]
To the house that I grew up in[00:00:26]
Going back was something after all these years[00:00:30]
I drove down monterey street[00:00:36]
And I felt a little sadness[00:00:40]
When I turned left laurel and the house appeared[00:00:43]
And I snuck up to that rocking chair[00:00:52]
Where the winter sunlight slanted on the screenedin' porch[00:00:56]
And I stared out past the shade tree[00:01:05]
That my laughing daddy planted on the day that I was born[00:01:08]
And I let time go by so slow[00:01:21]
And I made every moment last[00:01:35]
And I thought about years[00:01:47]
How they take so long[00:01:51]
And they go so fast[00:01:54]
Across the street the randol's oldest daughter must have come home[00:02:02]
Her two boys built a snowman by the backyard swings[00:02:08]
I thought of old man randol[00:02:15]
And his Christmas decorations[00:02:18]
And how he used to leave them up till early spring[00:02:22]
And I thought of all the summer's[00:02:31]
That I paced that porch and swore I'd die of boredom there[00:02:34]
And I thought of what I'd give to feel another summer linger[00:02:44]
Where a day feels like a year[00:02:50]
And I let time go by so slow[00:03:00]
And I made every moment last[00:03:13]
And I thought about years[00:03:26]
How they take so long[00:03:29]
And they go so fast[00:03:33]
Then the door flew open and my mother's voice was laughing[00:03:57]
As she called back to my daddy come and look who's here[00:04:03]
And I thought about years[00:04:12]
