When the grass was green And the birds would sing Laying in my father's arms as time flew by Reaching every dream Cause it didn't seem That days would keep on rolling and pass me by Why is it so hard to let go Why is it lonely when you're not alone Why is it days like this that always bring me back To blue skies and rides on a piggy back Life was wondering And the winds would sing As mother helped to wipe my tears dry Sunshine on my face On the brightest day Dancing with the memories of July Why is it so hard to let go Why is it lonely when you're not alone Why is it days like this that always bring me back To blue skies and rides on a piggy back Open arms still love me Days keep getting longer everyday I have this feeling Time keeps moving on anyway I keep the memories When days came easily And mom and dad will love me with all their hearts In the mystery Of who I'm gonna be I know that I will always have open arms Why is it so hard to not know Why is the hardest love the ones you don't let go Why is it days like this that always bring me back To blue skies and rides on a piggy back Blue skies and rides on a piggy back Blue skies and rides on a piggy back
