Day after day
The moments flee'd.
Then you grew up
Taller than me.

How my limbs would shake.
And my eyes would close.
I have no words.
This story has been told.

Just yesterday,
You were my child at play.
And now you're gone
So far away.

Why do years feel so brief
When the days were so long?
One thing we know
Our love goes on.

One thing we know
Our love goes on.
