How much for that swing I purchased last Summer 

The one with all the rust I guess it looks a little older 

The days they go so slow, the problem is the years are going by 

And the days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 

The days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 


What to do with that folder full of little Picassos 

And what about all those clothes, the ones I thought would never get old 

The days they go so slow, the problem is the years are speeding by 

And the days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 

The days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 


Man it’s true, man it’s true, about the days, about the years 

About the days, about the years 


The days they go so slow, the problem is the years are going faster 

And the days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 

The days, they go so slow but the years go even faster 


That’s a hurt that hurts when you send them off to college 

Time to break out the dust cloth and give the room a polish

 I remember fatigue, I remember exhaustion 

Now I’ve got too much space and too many hours

 

Man it’s true, man it’s true, about the days (they go so slow but the years go even faster) 

About the days (they go so slow but the years go even faster) 


About the days…
