Generate meaning
1
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
2
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
3
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
4
And I have to sit down for a while
5
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
6
And without really entering her world
7
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
8
That funny little girl
9
Slipping through my fingers all the time
10
I try to capture every minute
11
The feeling in it
12
Slipping through my fingers all the time
13
Do I really see what's in her mind
14
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
15
She keeps on growing
16
Slipping through my fingers all the time
17
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
18
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
19
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
20
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
21
What happened to the wonderful adventures
22
The places I had planned for us to go
23
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
24
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
25
And why, I just don't know
26
Slipping through my fingers all the time
27
I try to capture every minute
28
The feeling in it
29
Slipping through my fingers all the time
30
Do I really see what's in her mind
31
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
32
She keeps on growing
33
Slipping through my fingers all the time
34
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
35
And save it from the funny tricks of time
36
Slipping through my fingers
37
Slipping through my fingers all the time
38
Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
39
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
