All In A Day

Grandaddy seemed to talk in riddles 'round the end
 It took me a lot more livin' to understand what he meant
 When he said
 I was born at daylight walkin' tall by seven
 Gratuated ten a.m. got saved by eleven
 I took her hand it was straight up noon
 Had three kids before two
 They all grew and left in the afternoon
 Time flies these eyes
 Have seen the glory of the morning
 Turn into a silent night
 I've lived a million moments in the time
 It takes the sun to fade
 And it feels like it all happened in a day
 His eyes glistened as he talked about his autumn afternoon
 How they held each other in the chill of a silver moon
 He got all chocked up when midnight fell
 She squeezed his hand the clock struck twelve
 She let go and he was all by himself
 Time flies these eyes
 Have seen the glory of the morning
 Turn into a silent night
 I've lived a million moments in the time
 It takes the sun to fade
 And it feels like it all happened in a day
 But oh what a great day it was
 We lived we loved
 And it all just sped up around the end
 Time flies these eyes
 Have seen the glory of the morning
 Turn into a silent night
 I've lived a million moments in the time
 It takes the sun to fade
 And it feels like it all happened in a day
 Time lies
 And I feel like I lived my life in a day
