Darius Rucker, former Hootie And The Blowfish frontman, is now a country superfreak! I love it, everything I've heard from him sounds awesome so far and this song is no exception. It reminds me a lot of "You're Gonna Miss This." Anyways I really like "Don't Think I Don't Think About It" as well, but I stumbled across this - http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=ohgVoj1qRjI&feature=PlayList&p=56A65258... - on here not too long ago and loved it immediately. So my rendition is just trying to mimic his acoustic rendition (because I have yet to hear the album version of this one). Looking forward to the album dropping in September!

Oh...don't mind the farmer tanned GUN SHOW! hahah

*Lyrics*
He didn't have to wake up
He'd been up all night
Lying there in bed listening to his newborn baby cry
He makes a pot of coffee splashes water on his face
His wife gives him a kiss and says it's gonna be okay

It won't be like this for long
One day soon we'll look back laughing 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 their bed
And when he drops her off at pre-school 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'll 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 you're gone
This phase is gonna fly by if you can just hold on
It won't be like this for long

One day soon she'll be a teenager
And at times he'll think she hates him
Then he'll walk her down the aisle
And he'll raise her veisle
But right now she's up and crying
And the truth is he don't mind
As he kisses her goodnight
And she says her prayers

He lays down there beside her
Till her eyes have finally closed
And just watchin her it breaks his heart
'Cuz 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 tryin to hold on
It won't be like this for long
It won't be like this for long
