Story Behind The Song
This song was written specifically for my daughter's wedding day for the traditional Father/Daughter dance.
As the culmination of seeing your daughter grow from a child to a grown woman on her wedding day, one can't help but reminisce about the memories you've shared together, and hoping that those memories will always be kept in a safe place in her heart.

Lyrics
WHERE DID THE TIME GO?
Where did the time go
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
With a tender embrace, a kiss for luck, you're on your way
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.
Remembering you as a child
When I see you with that smile
And to know your that 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 I 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 inside of your heart
So that they'll never fade away.
Where did the time go, where did it go....
