lyrics

My son turned 8 today
i swear it was just yesterday
The first time
Our apartment felt so small

Now a stay at home dad
Tending bar it isn't bad
Except for the dirty looks
From suspicious moms

Things are changing all the time
We don't really see them change
Try to trap the ghosts of memories
While they're in our range

Home at 4 and up at 8
What I'd give to sleep late
We just get used to
Tired all the time

Little fingers Little toes
Milk stains on all my clothes
Everything is familiar
But feels new

Things are changing all the time
We don't really see them change
Try to trap the ghosts of memories
While they're in our range
