Then They Do Lyrics

In the early rush of mornin'
Tryin' to get the kids to school
One's hangin' on my shirt tail
Another's locked up in her room
And I'm yellin' up the stairs
Stop worryin' about your hair, you look fine

Then they're fightin' in the backseat
And I'm playin' referee
Now someone's gotta go
The moment that we leave
And everybody's late
I swear, I can't wait till they grow up

Then they do and that's how it is
It's just quiet in the mornin'
Can't believe how much you miss
All they do and all they did
You want all the dreams they dreamed of
To come true, then they do

Now the youngest is startin' college
She'll be livin' in the fall
And Brianna's latest boyfriend
Called to ask, "If we could talk"
I got the impression
That he's about to pop the question any day

I look over at their pictures
Sittin' in their frames
I see them as babies
I guess that'll never change
You pray all their lives
That someday they will find happiness

Then they do and that's how it is
It's just quiet in the mornin'
Can't believe how much you miss
All they do and all they did
You want all the dreams they dreamed of
To come true, then they do

No more Monday PTA's
No carpools or soccer games
Your work is done
Now you've got time that's all your own
You've been waitin' for so long
For those days to come

Then they do and that's how it is
It's just quiet in the mornin'
Can't believe how much you miss
All they do and all they did
You want all the dreams they dreamed of
To come true, then they do, oh then they do
