A message to the children.

It’s incredible how time seems to fly.

I’m sorry if I get busy in the daily grind.

That clock ticks by minute by minute

And it seems that it speeds up every day

I remember when you were so little

And you would copy my every move.

I remember when you were so little,

And it was just me and you…

Please slow the clock

Let the days drag on just a little longer.

Child don’t grow up so fast

I keep getting left in the past

And though I’m proud of who your growing into

I’m not ready for this part to pass.

You’re so smart and so strong

It’s easy to see you’re doing great.

You will do so much good in this world.

The light you shine will be a guiding light for so many of us down here.

Please slow the clock

Let the days drag on just a little longer.

Child don’t grow up so fast

I keep getting left in the past

And though I’m proud of who you’re growing into.

I’m just not ready for this part to pass.

This world will try to bring you down

And I hope I’ve taught you well.

You keep your head held high

And show them who you are.

I want to protect you for ever.

But I know you’ll be ok.

Just always remember in my eyes you’re still that, little one…

And I may not always be around.

But remember you made me proud.

And the love in my heart will go on.

Please slow the clock

Let the days drag on just a little longer.

Child don’t grow up so fast

I keep getting left in the past

And though I’m proud of who your growing into

I’m still not ready for this part to pass.
