Years Lyrics by Herdman - Hills - Mangsen

At the Turning of the Year

2000

I went home for Christmas to the house that I grew up in
Going back was something after all these years
I drove down Monterey Street and felt a little sadness
When I turned left on Laurel and the house appeared
And I snuck up to that rocking chair
Where the Winter sunlight slanted on the screened-in porch
And I stared out past the shade tree
That my laughing Daddy planted on the day that I was born
[Chorus]
And I let time go by so slow
And I made every moment last
And I thought about yеars
How they take so long
And they go so fast
Across thе street the Randol's oldest daughter must have come home
Her two boys built a snowman by the backyard swings
I thought of old man Randol and his Christmas decorations
And how he used to leave them up till early spring
And I thought about the summers
That I paced that porch and swore I'd die of boredom there
And I thought of what I'd give to feel
Another summer linger where a day feels like a year
[Chorus]
And I let time go by so slow
And I made every moment last
And I thought about years
How they take so long
And they go so fast
Then the door flew open and my Mother's voice was laughing
As she called back to my daddy, "Come and look who's here"
And I thought about years ...
