Flying By
by Billy Ray Cyrus

Album: Home At Last

It's bottles and bibs
Rattles and cribs
3 am's again and again
Comfort the cry
Man it's flyin' by

Swings and slides
And tricycle rides
Skinin' up knees
And fallin' outta trees
It's like it's never gonna end
But it's flyin' by

Chorus
You better hold on tight
To those little lives
In the blink of an eye
It's outta sight
I know I know to go so slow
But it's flyin' by

Then it's braces and boots
And bad attitudes
Boys and phones
And every change in moods
Tryin' times man
But you'll survive

And it's supposed to be home at ten
You're late again
Where the heck you been
When you're yellin' and screamin'
It don't seem like it's flyin' by
But it's flyin' by

You better hold on tight
To those changin' lives
In the blink of an eye
They're outta sight
I know I know it seems so slow
But it's flying by

There they go on their own
Flyin' by
You're wavin' good bye with a tear in your eye
I know I know you go so slow
But it's flyin' by


They come back home
And what do you know
Them kids have got some kids of their own
You can't believe how much they've grown
And where the time's gone

You look in the mirror
There's gray in your hair
You're wonderin' how the world did that get there
It just ain't fair
How it's flyin' by

You better hold on tight
To that sweet sweet life
In the blink of an eye
They're outta sight
I know I know it goes so slow
But it's flyin' by

When it's hospital beds
Last words said
Did I do enough
Holdin' hands
And bein' there for the leavin'

It's a line of cars
Parked on a hill
Family and friends
Perfectly still
A prayer and a song
As they lowered down into the ground

You better hold on tight
It's a short short life
In the blink of an eye
It's outta sight
I know I know it seems so slow

Yeah it seems so slow
But it's flyin' by
It's flyin' by

It's flyin' by
It's flyin' by
Enjoy the ride
