Then They Do lyrics

In the early rush of morning

Trying to get the kids to school

One's hangin' on my shirt tail

The other's locked up in her room

And I'm yellin' up the stairs

"Stop worrying about your hair, you look fine"

Then they're fightin' in the back seat

And I'm playing referee

Now someone's gotta go

The moment that we leave

And everybody's late

I swear I can't wait 'til they grow up

Then they do

And that's how it is

It's just quiet in the morning

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do

And all they did

You want all the dreams they've dreamed of to come true

Then they do

Now the youngest is starting college

She'll be leaving in the fall

And Brianna's latest boyfriend

Called to ask if we could talk

And I've got the impression

That he's about the pop the question any day

I look over at their pictures

Sittin' in their frames

I see them as babies

I guess that'll never change

You pray all their lives

That someday they will find happiness

Then they do

And that's how it is

It's just quiet in the morning

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do

And all they did

You want all the dreams they've dreamed of to come true

Then they do

No more Monday PTAs

No more carpools or soccer games

Your work is done

Now you've got time that's all your own

You've been waiting for so long

For those days to come

Then they do

And that's how it is

It's just quiet in the morning

Can't believe how much you miss

All they do

And all they did

You want all the dreams they've dreamed of to come true

Then they do

Oh, and then they do
