Lyrics

(Bb)School bag in hand,

(Bbm)she leaves (F)home in the (Am)early morning

(Bb)waving goodbye (Bbm)with an (F)absentminded (Am)smile.

(Bb)I watch her go (Bbm)with a (F)surge of that (Am)wellknown sadness,

(Bb)waving goodbye (Bbm)with an (F)absentminded (Am)smile.

(Bb)and I have to (C)sit down for a (F)while.

The (Bb)feeling that I'm (C)losing her (F)forever

(A)and (Bb)without really (C)entering her (F)world.

I'm (Bb)glad whenever (C)I can share her (F)laughter,

that (C7sus4)funny little (F)girl.

Slipping through my (Bb)fingers (C7sus4)all the time,

I try to capture ev'ry (Gm)minute,

the feeling (F)in it.

Slipping through my (Bb)fingers (C7sus4)all the time,

do I really (Bb)see what's (C7sus4)in her mind?

Each time I think I'm close to (Gm)knowing

she keeps on (F)growing.

Slipping through my (Bb)fingers (C7sus4)all the time.
