[Verse 1]
Did some livin' in the moment today
Got down on the floor and played with my little girl
For a little while
It's crazy how much she's grown
It seems last I looked, she was so small but she sure ain't now
But she's around that age her first memories are made
Oh, I remember being that young once
I think it was yesterday

[Chorus]
Time flies
Blows by
Feels like I've missed so many things
Time flies
Sometimes, God
I wish You'd clip its wings

[Verse 2]
Another day is winding down
There you stand in that cotton gown
The one you wore when we first made love
Back when this was just a dream, no house, no kids
The only thing we had then was us
Babe, I can't help but miss that now and then
'Cause all those old tomorrows
Ain't coming back again
[Chorus]
Time flies
Blows by
Feels like I've missed so many things
Time flies
Sometimes, God
I wish You'd clip its wings

[Bridge]
God, why can't You clip its wings?
Time flies
God I, I wish You'd clip its wings
God, why can't You clip its wings?

[Outro]
Time flies
Time flies
God, why can't You clip its wings?
Time flies
Time flies
Time flies
