Darius Rucker- It won't be like this for long and lyrics

Darius Rucker's new song
It Won't Be Like This For Long

LYRICS:

He didnt 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 gonna be OK

It wont 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 wont 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 dont you worry
This will only last a week or two

It wont be like this for long
One day soon we'll drop her off
And she wont even know your gone
This phase is gonna fly by
If you can just hold on
It wont be like this for long

One 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 dont 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 wont 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 wont be like this for long
It wont be like this for long

I'm 20 weeks pregnant with a little girl and this song make me tear up. i just can't imagine how fast this is going to happen and how she just won't stay a baby for long at all.

The wierd thing to me, he sounds white.

This song is how I feel w my kids everyday. Really pulls at your heartstrings.

Three months ago, my female bestfriend suggested me this song, I am today a father of a beautiful young boy, it's amazing to remember and listen to this song, now when we are standing here with my baby boy, crying.. Everytime he cries, I think of this song, it relieves me and make me smile. Thank you my bestfriend from Estonia, Yes I'm talking about you Kadri! Thank you for being such a good friend!.

I love this song. I had no idea he was black but damn he can sing country.

[20loner]

this song makes me miss my father and wish that he would come back home but in heart i know he wont no matter what i say he has his new family now and i am just dust in the wind to be forgotten. i just wish he would call me and talk to me like he did to the other kids but i guess i was unlucky by being born later then they were

[soozyque8]

His voice is true folk singing.............not country............not rock............anytime I hear him on the radio, I enjoy and relax and reminisce.

Our girls are growing up so fast.. they ask for another baby daily. My Husband said that since our youngest is getting too old for Tree House Tv.. we gotta have another baby soon.
