These Early Days Lyrics

you're only two and the whole wide world revolves around you, and nothing's happened yet that you might ever wish to forget. It doesn't stay that way, if I could, I'd make it stay that way. And this you will recall in after years, though you may weary of this vale of tears---these days remember---always remember.

you're only two and I've no wish to worry you, so pay no mind to those who say the world is unkind---that's just something they've read, and if I could, I'd strike them dead. And this you will recall in after years, though you may weary of this vale of tears---these days, remember---always remember.

and, honey, there's no rush, the world will wait for you to grow up. And this you will recall in after years, though you may weary of this vale of tears---these early days, always remember.

I hope you never change. I'll call you Jimmy, they call you James; don't ever change. I'll call Jimmy, they call you James.

It's a good reminder as i sit at work on a Friday night missing my children and wife - and I know I want to protect them and the world doesn't have to be unkind - but i must make the time to be with them to get those memories of those early days...
