lyrics

Arkansas was not much on my mind when I was younger
When I got a little older, I saw what had been done
Thanksgiving Day with angel cake was always with my Great Grandmother
Because the days don't go by slowly

April of my eighth grade year is when my mother lost her father
And when I got a little older, I saw what she had done
She gathered up her daddy's love and gave it to me and my brother
Singin' the days don't go by slowly

I wonder how many times I'll see you again in this life

When I was a girl I said I'm gonna shine just like a star
But when I got a little older, I saw how some things are
That trophy shelves and record sales will just get you so far
But still the days don't go by slowly

I wonder how many times I'll see you again in this life
But we can't fear the setting sun, though it leaves we know it's not gone

Days don't go, days don't go by slowly

Arkansas was not much on my mind when I was younger
