You're Gonna Miss This

You're Gonna Miss This"

(originally by Trace Adkins)She was staring out that window, of that SUV

Complaining, saying I can't wait to turn 18

She said I'll make my own money, and I'll make my own rules

Mamma put the car in park out there in front of the school

Then she kissed her head and said I was just like youYou're gonna miss this, you're gonna want this back

You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times, so take a good look around

You may not know it now, but you're gonna miss this

Before she knows it she's a brand new bride

In a one-bedroom apartment, and her daddy stops by

He tells her it's a nice place, she says it'll do for now

Starts talking about babies and buying a house

Daddy shakes his head and says baby, just slow downYou're gonna miss this, you're gonna want this back

You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times, so take a good look around

You may not know it now, but you're gonna miss thisFive years later there's a plumber workin' on the water heater

Dog's barkin', phone's ringin', one kid's cryin', one kid's screamin'

She keeps apologizin' and he says they don't bother me.

I've got 2 babies of my own, one's 36, one's 23.

It's hard to believe, but...

You're gonna miss this, you're gonna want this back

You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast

These are some good times, so take a good look around

You may not know it now, but you're gonna miss this...
