Bonnie Raitt - Then They Do lyrics

rate me

In the early rush of morning<br />

Trying to get the kids to school<br />

One's hanging on my shirttail<br />

Another's locked up<br />

In her room<br />

And I'm yelling up the stairs<br />

Stop worrying 'bout your hair<br />

You look fine<br />

<br />

Then they're fightin' in the backseat<br />

I'm playing referee<br />

Now someone's gotta go<br />

The moment that we leave<br />

And everybody's late<br />

I swear that I can't wait<br />

'Till they grow up<br />

<br />

(Chorus) <br />

Then they do<br />

And that's how it is<br />

It's just quiet in the morning<br />

Can't believe<br />

How much you miss<br />

All they do<br />

And all they did<br />

You want all the dreams<br />

They dreamed of<br />

To come true<br />

Then they do<br />

<br />

Now the youngest is starting college<br />

She'll be leavin' in the Fall<br />

And Brianna's latest boyfriend<br />

Called to ask if we could talk<br />

And I got the impression<br />

That he's about to pop the question any day<br />

<br />

I look over at their pictures<br />

Sittin' in their frames<br />

I see them as babies<br />

I guess that'll never change<br />

You pray all their lives<br />

That someday they will find happiness<br />

<br />

(Chorus) <br />

Then they do<br />

And that's how it is<br />

It's just quiet in the morning<br />

Can't believe<br />

How much you miss<br />

All they do<br />

And all they did<br />

You want all the dreams<br />

They dreamed of<br />

To come true<br />

Then they do<br />

<br />

No more Monday PTA's<br />

No carpools<br />

Or soccer games<br />

Your work is done<br />

Now you've got time<br />

That's all your own<br />

You've been waitin' for so long<br />

For those days to come<br />

<br />

(Chorus) <br />

Then they do<br />

And that's how it is<br />

It's just quiet in the morning<br />

Can't believe<br />

How much you miss<br />

All they do<br />

And all they did<br />

You want all the dreams<br />

They dreamed of<br />

To come true<br />

Then they do
