Coffee stained cups out on her window sill If it's mine or hers we'll make it out When we play upon the notion of who will wash the dishes Wasn't sure then what I wanted, now I think that this is it I should've listened to the call Just as blossoms act as fleeting signs to mark The everlasting spring, and a too impatient summer Now and then, I worry all my time away Now and then, I hurry through my glory days Give this more thought I'm helpless against the ticking time that plagues us all And it's barely been a minute since I learned to crawl Could you hold my hand, I'm terrified of another stage of life And of every passing hour Now and then, I worry all my time away Now and then, I hurry through my glory days Have you ever seen a tree so old it made you kind of sad? That the branches and the leaves we've grown is all we've ever had When the snow is melted and the grander forest comes to view Will I still cherish anything? Will I still cherish you? Slow down, slow down, I can't slow down, despite the peace that I've found I can't slow down, slow down Now and then, I worry all my time away Now and then, I hurry through my glory days
