[00:02.03] Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning

[00:08.58] Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile

[00:14.85] I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness

[00:21.57] And I have to sit down for a while

[00:26.84] The feeling that I'm losing her forever

[00:32.36] And without really entering her world

[00:38.12] I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter

[00:42.64] That funny little girl

[00:46.40] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[00:48.91] I try to capture every minute

[00:53.42] The feeling in it

[00:54.92] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[00:58.18] Do I really see what's in her mind

[01:00.43] Each time I think I'm close to knowing

[01:04.70] She keeps on growing

[01:06.45] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[01:11.71] Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table

[01:17.98] Barely awake I let precious time go by

[01:24.75] Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling

[01:31.01] And a sense of guilt I can't deny

[01:36.02] What happened to those wonderful adventures

[01:42.04] The places I had planned for us to go

[01:47.81] Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't

[01:52.32] And why, I just don't know

[01:56.08] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[01:58.87] I try to capture every minute

[02:02.89] The feeling in it

[02:04.93] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[02:07.93] Do I really see what's in her mind

[02:10.70] Each time I think I'm close to knowing

[02:14.71] She keeps on growing

[02:16.46] Slipping through my fingers all the time

[02:20.27] Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture

[02:25.78] And save it from the funny tricks of time

[02:29.80] Slipping through my fingers

[02:58.87] Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning

[03:05.64] Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
