You're Gonna Miss This

So about 3 years ago, when I was nannying in CT (I can't believe it's been that long!) a song came out that I fell in love with. I emailed the lyrics to the mom of the kids I nannied and she loved it too! Then I emailed it to my sister Heidi and she also loved it and said it was just what she needed.

Anyway, this is a song I wanted to make "record" of and write out the lyrics because it has great memories for me.

You're Gonna Miss This :
She was starin out the window of their SUV
Complainin sayin I can't wait to turn 18
She said I'll make my own money And I'll make my own rules
Momma put the car in park out there in front of the school
And she kissed her head, and said 'I was just like you'
You're gonna' miss this
You're gonna' want this back
You're gonna' wish these days Hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times So take a good look around
You may not know it now But you're gonna' miss this
Before she knows it she's a brand new bride
In her one bedroom apartment And her daddy stops by
He tells her it's a nice place
She says, 'It'll do for now'
Starts talkin' about babies, and buyin a house
Daddy shakes his head And says baby just slow down
Cuz' you're gonna' miss this
You're gonna' want this back
You're gonna' wish these days Hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times So take a good look around
You may not know it now But you're gonna' miss this
Five years later there's a plumber Workin' on the water heater
Dog's barkin', phone's ringin' One kid's cryin' one kid's screamin'
And she keeps apologizin'
He says they don't bother me
I've got two babies of my own One's thirty- six, one's twenty- three
Huh, it's hard to believe But you're gonna' miss this
You're gonna' want this back
You're gonna' wish these days Hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times So take a good look around
You may not know it now But you're gonna' miss this
You're gonna' miss this Yeaahhhh... you're gonna' miss this...


I hope you enjoyed it too :)
