All In A Day - John Michael Montgomery

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
