Where did time go
Chasing Memories: Nostalgia and Reflection in Dustin Burchett's 'Where did time go'
Lyrics
I wish they made trucks like they use to
I long for the days when trucks were built with the same quality as they used to be.
I wish they'd get back to the real news
I desire a return to reporting on significant and genuine news.
I wish that old water hole was just deep enough
I wish the traditional water hole was just deep enough to enjoy and have some carefree fun.
To jump right in and have a little fun
Expressing a desire for simple joys, like jumping into a sufficiently deep water hole.
I wish every porch still had a swing
Expressing nostalgia for a time when every porch had a swing.
Every house had a tin roof when it rained
Desiring a return to the era when houses had tin roofs, especially enjoyable during rain.
It was the little things that made life worth wild
Reflecting on the notion that it's the small, seemingly insignificant things that give life its value.
What we wouldnt give just to see you smile.
Expressing a willingness to give a lot just to witness a genuine smile.
Whe grew up and settled down made our names around these little townsthe kids have moved on look at how they've grown we always say things move slow
Reflecting on growing up, settling down, and making a mark in small towns; observing the slow pace of life.
Where did time go
Pondering the rapid passage of time and wondering where it has gone.
Grandpa said 50 years in love
Quoting grandpa's advice about the insufficiency of 50 years in love.
Beleive me son it just aint enough
Grandpa advises that a lifetime of love is never enough.
Live your life boy you will be ok
Encouraging the listener to live their life and assuring them that everything will be okay.
But just remember to get on your knees and pray.
Advising to remember the importance of prayer in life.
Whe grew up and settled down made our names around these little townsthe kids have moved on look at how they've grown we always say things move slow
Continuing the reflection on settling down in small towns and observing the growth of children.
Where did time go
Reiterating the question about the swift passage of time.
Where did time go
Repeating the query about the elusive nature of time.
Whe grew up and settled down made our names around these little townsthe kids have moved on look at how they've grown we always say things move slow
Reflecting on the slow pace of life in small towns and the inevitability of children growing up.
Where did time go
Repeating the inquiry about where time has disappeared.
It moves faster then you think
Stressing the idea that time moves faster than one might realize.
