THE DAYS ARE LONG BUT THE YEARS GO FAST             (Cooper/Jones)
© 2025 All Rights Reserved

I wasn’t ready when you moved out to your Uni dorm 
It was a shock to feel so empty and outta the norm
I was excited for you to have adventures of your own
But after you left, I sat an’ cried all alone  

I couldn’t believe how quickly your childhood went 
And how much I longed to do it all again 
I have yet so much that I’m longing to show you
I hope I’m still the one that you can turn to

Coz the days are long, but the years go fast 
You’re so caught up in the moment, think they’re always gonna last 
The sleepless nights turn into busy routines 
Then when you finally get the hang of it, they’re ready to leave 

One minute you’re longing for some peace and rest 
A break from sticky fingers when the house is a mess 
Next, they’re taller than you, can do exactly what they want 
And you’re helpless to stop ‘em, only stand by an’ watch

Coz the days are long, but the years go fast 
You’re so caught up in the moment, think they’re always gonna last 
The sleepless nights turn into busy routines 
Then when you finally get the hang of it, they’re ready to leave 

Wherever they go they take a piece of your heart 
You hope they’re gonna visit after moving so far 
You want them to be loved and to be well
But you’re still gonna miss ‘em and it hurts like hell 

Coz the days are long, but the years go fast 
You’re so caught up in the moment, think they’re always gonna last 
The sleepless nights turn into busy routines 
Then when you finally get the hang of it, they’re ready to leave

The Days Are Long but the Years Go Fast
