Lyrics:
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go?
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
And why? I just don't know
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile - Hudba
Found this song through an Instagram reel. This is such a beautiful song ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭
Me too from @leftturnfarm 😄
was it in a video about wedding?
Same
@@timurosmonov6034 i guess not. Its a new song so i doubt this has been on a wedding video yet. Plus it seems that this song is from the perspective of a father or a brother (not a lover), but idk
Same ❤😭😭
My daughter is 52 and lives in Germany. This song makes me ache from missing her. Did I appreciate the moments of her life when she was under my roof? Only 19 years of coming in my door everyday. We don’t know what we have till it’s gone. It went so fast. They should play this song for everyone who has a new baby before they leave the hospital. Make the moments count.
My daughter is 11 and I am crying evrytime I hear this no matter who sing it.
@@Anne-fn5ke I don't even have children and I cry each time I hear this song... BTW this is a beautiful version. ❤️
I'm holding my baby girl on my lap right now, when she looks at my face I have to keep smiling so she doesn't mistake my tears for sadness, I just love her so much, I already can feel my time with her starting to slip away . . .
@@PurpleMintSam same here🥺
Others saying it's for their daughter. Here I am, savoring every lyrics for the past me. Wondering why I changed. Why I lost the happiness I was feeling when I was young. And why I was so naive that I let people use me until I'm tired to the point I wanted to end it all without even fighting back. I miss the old me. That little girl, I wish I can see her again.
If you want back your Happiness back Live in the present moment with thoses who u cherish the most, with love and don’t look back, and Ask Jésus-Christ for better life a New Happy Life With relationships with him.
I’m sorry babe, there only 3 things you can do pray, pray and pray❤❤❤
I was literally feeling the same thing. It’s bittersweet to know that I have changed and will never be that younger me again. Things were so much easier then, and life has change me in ways I never thought it could, good and bad.
I know this feeling. If you are like me, then you are now wiser and stronger than you used to be because of the struggles you had to face.
I wish you will find yourself soon and be able to love yourself without conditions ❤
@candycnd563 I’m so sorry. I am in the same place. ABBA is the band who originally wrote and sang this and if you’ve ever listened to “Dancing Queen”, it’s also about the loss of innocence, so I think this song could very well have multiple meanings. It’s spoke to me the same way it spoke to you; I wasn’t thinking of parents watching their children grow up . I wish I could give you a big hug. The loss is immense, especially when we’ve let people use and abuse us and feeling it can be overwhelming. I know that little girl is still deep inside of both of us. I need to help her heal and find joy again. I hope you can as well.
This version represents a father's feeling when seeing her daughter who's growing day by day and the father knows he can't keep her forever. This cover's not as sorrowful as ABBA it gives nostalgic vibe, finally father really wants his daughter be happy
My only daughter just moved out on her own this last month. On one of our last dinner dates a few months ago she played the mamma mia version of this song on the car ride. I asked her if she was trying to get me to cry. I told her I was too happy enjoying our time together. Now that she lives hours away And I seem to hear this song every few days due to this release, finally today I listened, leaned in and had a really really big cry. Still kinda crying and listening on repeat trying to get it all out. Hold your babies close. One day you will put them down and you won't pick them back up again. Next thing you know they will be waving goodbye and you won't have the comfort in knowing when you will see them again. I adore being my daughter's mother. I miss her so much. It's a process, getting use to her being 12hrs away...my heart, my beautiful, funny, loving baby. All grown.
I hear you. I get it.
I know this feeling...😭♥️
Why does this version touch my heart more than any previous version? Got me ugly-crying over here 😭😭😭😭 so beyond beautiful and touching
Even me
Chill, it's just a song
I’m so flipping tired right now I’m a mess. And I’m sitting on the bathroom floor crying listening bc to this. Sometimes you just feel too much you know? And you need to just let it out
Idk how you felt but i think might feel you with this.... and just know things will get better and we shouldnt let this be our future.. for how we die matters and what will our thoughts be matters, for our thoughts are what we take and leave behind.
Nothing is forever, not even your problems, they'll go away..
This song makes me think of my daughters and how time goes too fast....us fathers tend to work too much. And by the time we slow down, our kids are all grown up and have their own lives....time is precious...
But why does this cover have so much feels than the original.. I am crying waterfalls 😭 Thank you to instagram reel for this beautiful cover
Never heard an ABBA cover I liked, but this is lovely.
The part "sometimes I wish that I can freeze the picture" made me come on CZcams immediately from Instagram to search for this song. It's so so so beautiful.
same with me 😊
This is how I feel about my daughter. I had to give her up to my older sister bc I had just gotten out a very dangerous and abusive relationship with her father and my life was shambles and I was struggling with severe mental health issues and a drug addiction to meth that her dad got me on, I did through out my entire pregnancy that I only stopped doing a month before she was born and thankfully it didn't affect her and she's healthy and happy. I'm just now starting to get it back together but I wasn't ready to be a mom. I've been sober for 7 months now. She's only 6 months and it's hard to know I can't be her mom...I love her so dearly...
I hope she loves me too when she grows up and learns I'm her birth mom and she doesn't hate me for giving her to my sister. I'm still in her life just not as her mother..
I really wish you one day to be together with your daughter.
I am sure that she loves you.
stay strong mom, now you have great motivation and responsibility, as long as you try with all your heart, I'm sure everyone, including your child, will understand and love you
This is probably the most beautiful rendition. Thanks to Instagram reels. When I heard it day I made a video of all the pictures I have of my daughter. She is 16 today and it makes me thing where did time run with us☺️🥺
It's about time passing and about growth. You won't have back time passed. You have to enjoy the NOW.
I'm crying.. this song reminds me of my daughter.. it's so sad to work away from her... Not seeing her growing slowly until i was just surprised she's already a young lady now.. may God bless all the working mothers unable to see their children grow but yet trying her bestest to work her ass off just give children a better future. Salute to all those responsible mothers from all over the globe..
Network marketing is super work for you, you would working besides your daughter
Well done young man, I could not even imagine a man singing this song but I have to say you have truly captured the essence of this amazing song 💜🙏💜
This is really bring tears to my eyes as a mum of two teenage girls. Time flies so fast.
This was mine and my Mum's favourite song from Mamma Mia, we'd watch it every other Friday after she had chemo. She always shed a tear at this bit, every time without fail. I lost her nearly 7 years ago and now I'm grown and about to get married, and I shed a tear every time I hear it. How the roles reversed. Love you mumma bear x
This version has me bawling. Wow what an amazing voice. Great wedding version.
*I heard this version on Instagram and fell in love with the voice right away omg*
❤️❤️❤️
Yeah me too..
Surprisingly I never liked this song on 'Mamma Mia' but after hearing your version and your voice, I am a fan. Keep singing :) You are amazing!
Did you hear the ABBA version? (the original one) ... btw, this version is very cool tho 👍
@@dynasty6932 I did numerous times - I even visited ABBA Museum but it didn't strike me as 'memorable' compared to this version :)
I wept my eyes out during that scene from Mamma Mia. Hearing this cover made me love both versions even more. But everyone has different tastes in music and I respect that. ABBA, Meryl, and Ethan did great!
@@ralphaustinfernandez9851 I concur wholeheartedly!
Whoever wrote this song saw something beautiful.
My family didn't stay together. And they stopped being people I could rely on. I wish they felt about me the way this singer feels about her kids.
Ohh remember you are so loved ,,so so loved by the one who created you ,,Our loving Father in Heaven ,,you said i wish my parents would feel for me that way..he feels like this for you,,he feels unconditional love for his loving child that is changing and facing life in his way,,he wants you to do it together with him,,He loves you 🤍
Such a beautiful & heart touching song ❤️❤️❤️❤️ made my cry 😢😢😢 realising that our little daughter is growing up so fast 😭😭😭😭
Hi, I am only nineteen years old. when I heard this song I accidentally searched for a piece of lyrics in search and don't know what year this song was made. I feel my heart feel so sad and it's hard to explain why I feel like I'm missing someone. I'm also confused about how I really feel about this pain when I hear the song you sing.
Thank you for singing and making me realize that what happened will never happen again.
🖤
Its in Mama Mia movie!!!
I'm in love with this version. We don't deserve your voice!!!
Heard this song the first time in a movie and never left me since then. I always end up crying to this beautiful song. I am not a parent, but this really hits me to the core. There were days I knew my mom was singing this in her heart, but this hits differently now that she's gone. Missing my mom. :(
Gosh... This is probably the best cover ever , love your voice ✌️✅✅
The message of the song😭 its just so good!
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning

Lost my mom 2 weeks ago because of cancer… listening to this song reminds me of her, as she used to listen to it a lot. I really love this cover !
I’m so so sorry for your loss. Sending you much love and hugs your way ❤❤
@@ericasauceda7347 thanks a lot❤️ today i also found out my longterm boyfriend cheated on me. Another time to listen to this song…
It’s 3:48am on my son’s second birthday. I got up to go to the bathroom about an hour ago and watched the Instagram slideshow set to this song that she made for him before she went to bed. Needless to say, I was unable to go back to sleep.
Oh time, you cruel cruel monster. Of course I’m looking forward to watching my son grow up into a man, but right now, I just want to sneak into his room and pick him up out of his crib and hold him forever in my arms just the way he is right now 😭
Beautiful ❤
I like this version at the most
Beautiful lyrics x has a feel of a beatles song
This is beautiful makes me cry reminds me of what I've lost
