Verse:1
I Could of swore I was the last one left
As I stood there staring through that nursery glass
Camera focused on my newborn baby girl
Verse:2
Then I heard a voice coming from behind me
Old man saying " She sure is sweat thing
these memories, got a makem last cause they sure grow up fast"
Chorus:
from paper dolls scattered through the house
stuffed animals piled up on the couch
crayon pictures taped in every room
from the crawling to the running it happens too soon
Verse:3
Sure enough like the old man said
in the twinkling of an eye
how those years they past
And now I'm standing here
staring through that same old nursery glass

Verse:4
Camera focused on a new baby girl
same picture in a different world
echoe's of the past
I tell a young man ya got
to make these memories last
Final Chorus:
from paper dolls scattered through the house
stuffed animals piled up on the couch
First day of school to her own dorm room
from the crawling to the running it happens too soon
Bridge:
you realize just how dog gone fast
When they're all grown up and you're looking back
the first day those little eyes sparkle at you
Then they're crawling n running, aw it happens to soon
Last Chorus:
from paper dolls scattered through the house
stuffed animals piled up on the couch
First words spoken to the words I Do
from the crawling to the running it happens too soon
