Stand Still Lyrics

Hilary Weeks Stand Still

I’ve been taking pictures for a long, long time
Some are on paper – but most are in my mind
Snapshots and memories of the days when you were young
I plan to keep them
Long after you’ve grown and gone
I remember watching as you took your first step
Seems the clock’s been running faster ever since
Every day a little taller, it says so on the wall
The days are passing
And they’re not going to stop
And if I could
I would
Ask time to stand still
So I could hold you a little longer
I'd make the minutes stop
So we would always have today
I won’t let the sun go down
Until you know how I feel
I love you so much
I wish time could stand still
Fingerprints all over the sliding glass door
And I can barely see underneath the toys on the floor
I have wished away the sleepless nights, the noise and the messes made
But my heart reminds me
I'm gonna miss these days
So if I could
I would
