Then They Do (With String Intro)

Songs Title：then they do

In the early rush of morning

Trying to get the kids to school

One's hanging on my shirt-tail

Another's locked up in her room

And I'm yelling up the stairs

Stop worrying 'bout your hair you look fine

Then they're fightin' in the backseat

And I'm playing referee

Now someone's gotta go

The moment that we leave

And everybody's late

I swear that I can't wait till they grow up

Then they do and that's how it is

It's just quiet in the mornin'

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do and all they did

You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true

Then they do

Now the youngest is starting college

She'll be leavin' in the Fall

And Brianna's latest boyfriend

Called to ask if we could talk

And I got the impression

That he's about to pop the question any day

I look over at their pictures

Sittin' in their frames

I see them as babies

I guess that'll never change

You pray all their lives

That someday they will find happiness

Then they do and that's how it is

It's just quiet in the mornin'

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do and all they did

You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true

Then they do

No more Monday PTA's

No carpools or soccer games

Your work is done

Now you've got time that's all your own

You've been waitin' for so long

For those days to come

Then they do and that's how it is

It's just quiet in the mornin'

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do and all they did

You want all the dreams they dreamed of to come true

Then they do

Ah then they do
