Lyrics

Where Did Time Go? - by Gordie Harris

[Verse]
Woke up late joints creakin’ like a rusty door
House is quiet kids don’t live here no more
Coffee’s strong but it don’t fix the ache
Still
I smile as I flip that pancake

[Chorus]
Where did time go oh I’d like to know
One day crayons now it’s a Medicare world
Bourbon and cigars on my patio throne
But I’d trade it for chaos and a house not my own

[Verse 2]
Happy hour starts at quarter to three
No one’s here to say it’s too early for me
Couch is mine remote in my hand
Yet I’d swap it for Legos all over this land

[Prechorus]
I’ve got peace I’ve got quiet
But man
I miss that riot

[Chorus]
Where did time go oh I’d like to know
One day swingsets now it’s naps that flow
Sleeping in feels sweet but the silence has grown
I’d trade it for noise and a house not my own

[Bridge]
Used to yell “No running inside”
Now it’s echoes that I can’t hide
Life’s a race and I’ve slowed my pace
But I still see their smiles in every space
