all in a day

Lyrics

grandaddy seemed to talk in riddles 'round the end, it took me a lot more livin' to understand what he meant, when he said, i was born at daylight walkin' tall by seven, gratuated ten a.m. got saved by eleven, i took her hand it was straight up noon, had three kids before two, they all grew and left in the afternoon, time flies these eyes, have seen the glory of the morning, turn into a silent night, i've lived a million moments in the time, it takes the sun to fade, and it feels like it all happened in a day, his eyes glistened as he talked about his autumn afternoon, how they held each other in the chill of a silver moon, he got all chocked up when midnight fell, she squeezed his hand the clock struck twelve, she let go and he was all by himself, time flies these eyes, have seen the glory of the morning, turn into a silent night, i've lived a million moments in the time, it takes the sun to fade, and it feels like it all happened in a day, but oh what a great day it was, we lived we loved, and it all just sped up around the end, time flies these eyes, have seen the glory of the morning, turn into a silent night, i've lived a million moments in the time, it takes the sun to fade, and it feels like it all happened in a day, time lies, and i feel like i lived my life in a day, in a day
