Small shoes by the doorway
New height on the wall
Time moves like it knows you
Olivia in the morning light
Laughing in my old T-shirt
Running like she owns the whole sky I blink and she’s someone
new
Every picture on my phone
Feels like it was yesterday She’s learning all the grown-up words
Before I’m ready for the change (ahhhh)
Slow down, Olivia, slow down You’re growing up too fast
One day you’re holding my hand
Next day you’re out of my grasp
Stay little, just a minute Let the moments last Slow down,
Olivia, slow down
Used to count her missing teeth
Now she’s picking out her clothes
Asking questions I can’t answer
Like she’s already on her own
I’m trying to memorize the sound
Of her feet on the hallway floor If time won’t stop,
I’ll hold her close And
love her
even more (ooh)
Slow down, Olivia, slow down You’re growing up too fast
One day you’re holding my hand
Next day you’re out of my grasp
Stay little, just a minute Let the moments last
Slow down, Olivia, slow down (oh-oh)
Slow down…
Olivia…
