about

Young birds leave the nest, and in the blink of an eye, young people leave their parents’ home to start a new life on their own. Sweet memories and shadows in twilight conjure an empty feeling, as everything changes.

lyrics

Years are Short Days are Long
Words By: Rick Denzien, Debra Lee, Tobie Hoffman, Melissa Baehr
Music By: Rick Denzien

We packed two bags she’s out on her own
In college now my girl is grown
School photographs art work on the wall
The years are short - the days are long
loud silent noise leaking from her room
No talk with boys no current tunes
Fighting back tears as I close the door
The years are short - the days are long

Now my memories are my treasure
As the sunlight disappears
And her love lies in the shadows
As she takes her leave from here

Ended the call she's safe in her dorm
Blankets we bought will keep her warm
I'm holding on while letting her go
The years are short - the days are long
A parents voice haunting as a howl
Lessons from home are with her now
The seasons of love keep family strong
The years are short - the days are long

Now my memories are my treasure
As the sunlight disappears
And her love lies in the shadows
As she takes her leave from here

The years are short - the days are long

As if fate was like being stuck behind a snow plow on the Thruway in the middle of a raging blizzard on pack snow & black ice while driving 65 mph… never being able to see more than 15 to 25 feet ahead.”
