One, we didn’t sleep at all
     D#m                   F#/A#
Two, was footsteps down the hall

18 years you don’t get back

18 trips around the sun,

Why holding time’s like holding sand

Always slipping through my hands

Ten, eleven, like a weed you grew

Fifteen, first boy broke your heart
F#/A#
Sixteen, driving daddy’s car
   G#m 
Seventeen, you’re wild and free,
                   F#                         G#m  F#/A#
 and I’m waiting up for you
              H
Then there you stood, cap and gown
                 F#/A#
And I’m smiling as I think about

How every one before’s what led us to

Dorm room number 205
           D#m                      F#/A#
A grown man trying not to cry
                 H                  F#/A#            H
Can’t wait to see all you’re gonna do

Your mom and me and two aching hearts
       D#m                      F#/A#
Driving home in an empty car
        H                            F#/A#             H
Thanking God for the gift of raising you
