These Are The Days

Letras

• Verse 1

  Hospital home was a four minute drive
  The baby on board made it thirtyfive
  We didn't sleep a wink that night
  Just laid by that crib singin’ nursery rhymes
  These are the days that we'll want back
  

• Verse 2

  The kindergarten dropoff line
  His first day of school didn't even cry
  That was when we knew that life
  It had a funny way of just passing us by
  These are the days that we'll want back
  

• Chorus

  So tell 'em bedtime stories
  Give 'em a kiss good night
  Darlin' before we know it
  This old house will be quiet
  I know we're tired right now
  But someday we'll laugh about it
  Let's slow it down and raise a glass
  'Cause these are the days
  That we'll want back
  

• Verse 3

  It took us a day to build that bike
  Felt like we only got a minute
  To watch him ride
  Juggling dinner school and practice times
  Just tryin’ to make it through
  To that glass of cheap wine
  And these are the days
  That we'll want back
  We'll want back
  

• Chorus

  So tell 'em bedtime stories
  Give 'em a kiss good night
  Darlin' before we know it
  This old house will be quiet
  I know we're tired right now
  But someday we'll laugh about it
  Let's slow it down and raise a glass
  'Cause these are the days
  That we'll want back
  

• Bridge

  And all of the countless crazy
  Sleepless nights
  All of the firsts and the lasts
  And the tears that we cried
  All of the how does this work
  Dad and Mom tell me why
  Sometimes growing up
  Feels like goodbye
  

• Verse 4

  There was a time
  When we were your world
  Now you're moving on to marry your girl
  So buy her a house
  And call it home
  Give her a life
  And some kids of her own
  

• Chorus

  Tell 'em bedtime stories
  Give 'em a kiss good night
  'Cause before you know it
  That old house will be quiet
  I know you're wild right now
  Someday we'll laugh about it
  Let's raise a glass and toast to that
  We'll always be your Mom and Dad
  

• Outro

  And these are the days
  That we'll want back
  We’ll want ‘em back
  We’ll want ‘em back
