5 Years Of You Lyrics

My heart just fell out of my chest
In a uniform, a lunch box and a hat
I had to put on a brave face
Oh, isn′t it my job just to smile and wave?

'Cause I had five years of you in my life
Holding my hand every little moment
Oh, I had five years of you in my life
And sometimes I just wish I could go back

But don′t slow down, little one
Today's your first day of school
No, don't slow down little one
If you be brave then I′ll be brave too

This gate behind me has to close
Just moving on and kind of letting go
I′ll pour myself a cup of tea
And watch the clock until it's time to leave

′Cause I had five years of you in my life
Holding my hand every little moment
Oh, I had five years of you in my life
And sometimes I just wish I could go back again

So, don't slow down little one
Today′s your first day of school
No, don't slow down little one
I′m so proud of you
