| She puts on her makeup
|
| And the last dress she remembers that turned his head
|
| That time he said, «You look beautiful»
|
| At six, the front door opens
|
| And he doesn’t even notice
|
| Kisses her cheek
|
| «Baby, when do we eat? |
| I’m starving»
|
| Oh, the beautiful things we miss…
|
| I don’t wanna miss it
|
| I don’t wanna look back someday and find
|
| Everything that really mattered
|
| Was right in front of me this whole time
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Keep me in the moment just like this
|
| Before the beautiful things we love
|
| Become the beautiful things we miss
|
| She hides out in her headphones
|
| Texting on her cell phone
|
| Daddy’s girl built a world behind her bedroom door
|
| While he was working hard and providing
|
| Bigger houses still get divided
|
| Just yesterday she was on his shoulders but today she’s older
|
| Why do we get older?
|
| Oh, the beautiful things we miss…
|
| I don’t wanna miss it
|
| I don’t wanna look back someday and find
|
| Everything that really mattered
|
| Was right in front of me this whole time
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Keep me in the moment just like this
|
| Before the beautiful things we love
|
| Become the beautiful things we miss
|
| We don’t get to rewind
|
| There’s no such thing as next time
|
| Help me remember, help me remember
|
| We don’t get this back
|
| They were right when they said «don't blink»
|
| It all goes faster than you think
|
| Lord, help me remember, help me remember
|
| The beautiful things we miss
|
| I don’t wanna miss it
|
| I don’t wanna look back someday and find
|
| Everything that really mattered
|
| Was right in front of me this whole time
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Keep me in the moment just like this
|
| Before the beautiful things we love
|
| Become the beautiful things we miss
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| I don’t want to miss it
|
| No, I don’t want to miss it
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Open up my eyes, Lord
|
| Before the beautiful things I love
|
| Become the beautiful things I miss |
