[ti:Slipping Through My Fingers]
[ar:Abba]
[00:01.36]Schoolbag  in  hand,she  leaves  home  in  the  early  morning
[00:08.11]Waving  goodbye  with  an  absent-minded  smile
[00:16.40]I  watch  her  go  with  a  surge  of  that  well-known  sadness
[00:23.87]And  I  have  to  sit  down  for  a  while
[00:30.22]The  feeling  that  I'm  losing  her  forever
[00:37.13]And  without  really  entering  her  world
[00:43.42]I'm  glad  whenever  I  can  share  her  laughter
[00:49.47]That  funny  little  girl
[00:53.84]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[00:56.88]I  try  to  capture  every  minute
[01:02.01]The  feeling  in  it
[01:04.25]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[01:07.70]Do  I  really  see  what's  in  her  mind
[01:10.59]Each  time  I  think  I'm  close  to  knowing
[01:15.93]She  keeps  on  growing
[01:18.01]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[01:24.10]Sleep  in  our  eyes,her  and  me  at  the  breakfast  table
[01:32.28]Barely  awake,I  let  precious  time  go  by
[01:40.31]Then  when  she's  gone  there's  that  odd  melancholy  feeling
[01:47.22]And  a  sense  of  guilt  I  can't  deny
[01:53.93]What  happened  to  the  wonderful  adventures
[02:01.04]The  places  I  had  planned  for  us  to  go
[02:07.34]Well,some  of  that  we  did  but  most  we  didn't
[02:13.28]And  why  I  just  don't  know
[02:17.75]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[02:20.75]I  try  to  capture  every  minute
[02:26.18]The  feeling  in  it  Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[02:31.77]Do  I  really  see  what's  in  her  mind
[02:34.66]Each  time  I  think  I'm  close  to  knowing  She  keeps  on  growing
[02:42.26]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[02:46.78]Sometimes  I  wish  that  I  could  freeze  the  picture
[02:53.63]And  save  it  from  the  funny  tricks  of  time
[02:58.09]Slipping  through  my  fingers
[03:26.43]Slipping  through  my  fingers  all  the  time
[03:32.44]Schoolbag  in  hand  she  leaves  home  in  the  early  morning
