He didn't have to wake up He'd been up all nite Lay'n there in bed listen'n To his new born baby cry He makes a pot of coffee He splashes water on his face His wife gives him a kiss and says It's gonna be OK
It won't be like this for long One day soon we'll look back laugh'n At the week we brought her home This phase is gonna fly by So baby just hold on It won't be like this for long
Four years later bout four thirty She's crawling in there bed And when he drops her off at preschool She's clinging to his leg The teacher peels her off of him He says what can I do She says now don't you worry This will only last a week or two
It won't be like this for long One day soon you'll drop her off And she won't even know your gone This phase is gonna fly by If you can just hold on It won't be like this for long
Some day soon she'll be a teenager And at times you'll think she hates him Then he'll walk her down the isle And he'll raise her vale But right now she up and cry'n And the truth is that he don't mind As he kisses her good night And she says her prayers
He lays down there beside her Till her eyes are finally closed And just watch'n her it breaks his heart Cause he already knows It won't be like this for long One day soon that little girl is gonna be All grown up and gone Yeah this phase is gonna fly by He's try'n to hold on It won't be like this for long It won't be like this for long
