Story Behind The Song
This song was written for my daughter's wedding day, specifically for the always touching Father/Daughter dance.
It was a time of reflection about the sweet memories of a daughter that we will always hold dear, and how proud we are to see her grow into the beautiful young woman she has become; hoping she will also hold these memories in a safe place in her heart.

Lyrics
Where Did The Time Go?
Music and Lyrics by Laura Adamowsky
Where did the time go?
(oh) I just turned around
You're standing before me
All grown up, in your wedding gown
How can I begin to tell you
How I'm feeling here today
It's taking my breath away
As we look back on yesterday
Keep our memories close and safe
Where did the time go?
It just slipped away
Here we are dancing on your wedding day
(Oh) I'm trying hard to hide my tears as I search for words to say
It's taking my breath away
As we dance, the music sways
May these memories never fade.
Rememb'ring you as a child
When I see you with that smile
And to know that your dreams are coming true
Just like I knew, that they would,
Simply, the world feels as it should
A wedding photo is framed, a promise made that love will remain
The hearts you've touched will never be the same
Where did the time go?
Oh where did it go?
As you're turning around can see how wonderfully you've grown
I want to tell you that I love you
And how proud I am today
But it's taking my breath away
As I hold you close and safe
May these memories find a place in your heart
So that they'll never fade away.
Where did the time go, where did it go....
