Lyrics

In these ever-changing days the winter slips away
The ice turns into water, remembering old ways
The sun hangs out for longer and temperatures rise
This Blue Jay by my window is sounding snow's demise

Every day comes quicker than the one before
Every day must soon enough be gone
Every day is a treasure that we have in store
Every day, every day I will not hold on

My dog is getting slower, longer in the tooth
If I told you I won't miss her, it wouldn't be the truth
You may ask about the owner, well I'm really just like her
My eyes are getting cloudy and I've lost a lot of fur

Every day comes quicker than the one before
Every day must soon enough be gone
Every day is a treasure that we have in store
Every day, every day I will not hold on

I have plans to let it go
Soon as I remember

In these ever-changing times we tread a fine line
Between wanting what's ahead and forgetting what's behind
From the crying of my daughter the first day that we met
To the passing of her father, there's much to be done yet

Every day comes quicker than the one before
Every day must soon enough be gone
Every day is a treasure that we have in store
Every day, every day I will not hold on
