My daughter is visiting me now. She's 51, but this song still gets to me.
Don't take your babies for granted, Ever.

i miss being a kid i miss those spring days i miss hearing the birds chirp while we were all climbing trees and rolling in the grass i miss the creativity and boundless energy we had as kids i miss having no doubt that everything would turn out fine

As a father I was separated from my daughter when she was just 3 years old, we’ve reunited now, and she’s 5. Today was her first day at school. I played this song and we danced together, her dress spinned through the air, her beautiful smile and a teary-eyed Dad embraced at the end, a moment I will never forget and cherish for the rest of my life.

I usually listen to this to reminisce with the past memories I had with my old trio. The pain and sadness I have when missing them so much that I hurts. The friendship that I thought would last for a lifetime, in which I thought would be forever. But sadly, it ended too fast. And on the day of my birthday as well. The guilt, sorrow, and burden I always have to carry. That every night, I can't help but question myself. Question my worth, my value, my mistakes and problems. That not a single day can I never think about the two of them. How are they doing despite being separated? How they're feeling throughout their life without me? Being so desperate of wanting them to need me, so I can always be there to abide them with their struggles and problems. Being so desperate to be with them once again, to share with their laughter. Knowingly, it's impossible. I'm saddened knowing that I could never feel the same happiness ever again with new people. The thoughts of never being myself again when the two parts of me are gone. Once again, they slipped through my fingers. In which I wished I could've cached them, keep them.

We are all losing a special someone as we speak, they are slipping Through my Fingers all the time and of course I try to capture every minute, the feeling in it.

i know this song is about mother and daughter, but i think of my old friends whenever i hear it. we were 14 in the pandemic and now we’ve all drifted apart. we had plans to move in together and everything. this song always makes me bawl my eyes out.

In Brazil (and some other countries) it's a tradition to make a big birthday party for a girl's 15th birthday. Me and my dad danced the waltz to this song :-)

This song hurts so much, I feel like my late mother would hear it and sing it to me... She died when I was 4, now I'm 19 and it seems like every day missing her hurts more

As a 78 year old male I am not ashamed to say that this song reduces me to tears EVERY TIME. Strangely cover versions, no matter how good, do not. That is the magic of ABBA.

As a fifteen year old girl, I’ll forever cry when listening to this song. I wonder if it’s how my dad felt as he watched me grow up and distance my self from him before he passed away.

Haven't cried yet. I should. I have. I usually do. I was in the 3rd grade and told to find my way to school as i was in trouble. I got lost. Fell to my knees and wept. That's my memory of my mother. Not the same as others.❤

[Lyrics]
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
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 what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go?
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
And why? I just don't know
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 what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile

For me, this song works in the opposite direction. I lost my Mother when she was young. She slipped through my fingers and wish I had more time with my Mum, and Dad. x

My mother is no longer with me, every time I hear this song I think her.. the times when she woke up at 5am with me just to prepare breakfast for me before school.. she also accompanied me to wait for my school bus.. it was a bittersweet memory that as embroidered in my memory, so vivid yet so distant. Such a melancholy feeling

I'm 11 years old, my mom is still with me but I'm afraid of losing her, I love her very much, my mom always does everything for me, she always takes care of me and I feel bad not doing something for her and I want her to be eternal for me, I love you mom
