"There Goes My Life"

I've been sitting here listening to the song "There Goes My Life" by Kenny Chesney and bawling my eyes out...not quite...but getting teary anyway. It has been a hard year in some ways, learning to let go of my oldest baby. It's weird to think that we are at the end of the song when just a few years ago I was at the beginning...
She had that Honda loaded down.
With Abercrombie clothes and 15 pairs of shoes and his American Express.
He checked the oil and slammed the hood, said you're good to go.
She hugged them both and headed off to the West Coast.

[Chorus:]
And he cried,
There goes my life.
There goes my future, my everything.
I love you.
Baby good-bye.

There goes my life.
There goes my life.
Baby good-bye.


I Love you, Sam!
