Bailey Williams - Where Did the Time Go

Where did the time go
Won't you tell me a joke
Write down your recipes
That never turn out right for me
I remember the farm house
The lawnmower rides
Our own newspaper stories
Cut out and glued
With Magic Marker headlines
Walks in the woods
Point out where the horses are buried
Walk through the halls
To see you both through the years
And the day you were married
Where did the time go
The days at the pond
The fish at our feet
You hand me an apple too big for my palm
Jot down your best one-liners
And I'll pass them along
To make people smile how you do
I'll get better at stretching the truth
I could spend hours and hours
Just picking up sticks
And listening to stories
Or just to the wind
I couldn't believe it when
They said you weren't doing well
Until you couldn't walk across the room
And you reached out for help
Where did the time go
And where have I been
It seems that just yesterday
You were teaching me how to swim
Holding my head above water
Helping me figure things out
Waiting at railroad crossings
You play your cassette tape of train sounds
Where did the time go
