Then They Do (With String Intro)

Then They Do (With String Intro) - Trace Adkins

Written by：Jim Collins/Cathy Majesk/Sunny Russ

In the early rush of morning

Trying to get the kids to school

One's hanging on my shirt tail

Another's locked up in her room

And I'm yelling up the stairs

Stop worrying about your hair you look fine

Then they're fighting in the backseat

And I'm playing referee

Now someone's got to 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 morning

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 starting college

She'll be leaving 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

Sitting 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 morning

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 waiting for so long

For those days to come

Then they do

And that's how it is

It's just quiet in the morning

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
