Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
_____
I hear a voice that softly asks me
_____
Will you come downstairs with me?
_____
Do you have to work later or are you free today?
_____
And will you go out with me for a bit?
_____
How fast time flies
_____
Just yesterday I saw her for the first time
_____
She lay here in my arms
_____
And how good time looks on her
_____
And see she's changed a little once more
_____
But no matter how big she gets
_____
In my eyes she'll always stay small
_____
Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
_____
I hear the front door open very softly
_____
And I fall asleep at ease
_____
I'd much rather have gone to pick her up
_____
If I wouldn't be standing there
_____
By now she finds her way home
_____
How fast time flies
_____
Just yesterday I saw her for the first time
_____
She lay here in my arms
_____
How good time looks on her
_____
And see she's changed a little once more
_____
But no matter how big she gets
_____
In my eyes she'll always stay small
_____
And sometimes when I close my eyes
_____
We walk together on the beach
_____
And then she pauses time for a moment
_____
For a moment it's just like back then
_____
And she needs me again
_____
Quarter past seven on Sunday morning
_____
She hears my voice softly waking her
_____
Today's your big day
_____
And how good time looks on her
_____
Now belongs to somebody else for good
_____
But wherever she may be
_____
In my thoughts she's here with me
_____
In my eyes she'll always stay small
