You're Gonna Miss This

[Verse 1] She was staring out that window, of that SUV Complaining, saying I can't wait to turn 18 She said I'll make my own money, and I'll make my own rules Mamma put the car in park out there in front of the school Then she kissed her head and said I was just like you [Chorus] You're going to miss this You're going to want this back You're going to wish these days hadn't gone by so fast These are some good times So take a good look around You may not know it now But you're going to miss this [Verse 2] Before she knows it she's a brand new bride In a one-bedroom apartment, and her daddy stops by He tells her It's a nice place She says It'll do for now Starts talking about babies and buying a house Daddy shakes his head and says Baby, just slow down [Chorus] [Verse 3] Five years later there's a plumber working on the water heater Dog's barking, phone's ringing One kid's crying, one kid's screaming She keeps apologizing He says They don't bother me I've got 2 babies of my own One's 36, one's 23 Huh, it's hard to believe, but [Chorus] You're going to miss this You're going to want this back You're going to wish these days hadn't gone by so fast These Are Some Good Times So take a good look around You may not know it now But you're going to miss this You're going to miss this Yeah, you're going to miss this
