Years Are Short Days Are Long

Years are Short Days are Long Words By: Rick Denzien, Debra Lee, Tobie Hoffman, Melissa Baehr Music By: Rick Denzien We packed two bags she’s out on her own In college now my girl is grown School photographs art work on the wall The years are short - the days are long loud silent noise leaking from her room No talk with boys no current tunes Fighting back tears as I close the door The years are short - the days are long Now my memories are my treasure As the sunlight disappears And her love lies in the shadows As she takes her leave from here Ended the call she's safe in her dorm Blankets we bought will keep her warm I'm holding on while letting her go The years are short - the days are long A parents voice haunting as a howl Lessons from home are with her now The seasons of love keep family strong The years are short - the days are long Now my memories are my treasure As the sunlight disappears And her love lies in the shadows As she takes her leave from here The years are short - the days are long © MMXV to date, Slot 1 Entertainment, Inc., ASCAP - all rights reserved.
