"Slipping Through my Fingers" by Abba

As my daughter and I watched Mama Mia! together the first time, this song came on and we just looked at each other and started to cry....when I close my eyes and let myself drift, the lyrics come to me; they are both comforting and sad.  I treasure all the moments I've had with my daughter but realize she has grown and in a sense those moments have been slipping through my fingers.....a few excerps from the song:

"...she leaves home in the early morning Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile"

"...The feeling that Im losing her forever And without really entering her world"

"...Slipping through my fingers all the time, I try to capture every minute, The feeling in it, Slipping through my fingers all the time, Do I really see whats in her mind, Each time I think Im close to knowing, She keeps on growing"

"...Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture, And save it from the funny tricks of time, Slipping through my fingers..."
