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 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

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.

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

[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

I am not yet a father or a parent, but i remember how fast I grew up and slipped out of my mother's hands. I still remember fondly of the days she used to walk me to school. Even though, I am now a grown up, she still writes me every morning and this song just makes me cry. I love you mom ♥♥. Thank you for this beautiful melody ABBA

Being the older sibling is like listening to this song in loop forever. Seeing my little sister grow to becoming a better version of herself every day is a feeling that i can't ever describe. It's so bittersweet, nostalgic, yet so loving, it's like a love no one can't ever top it.

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

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.

It's New Years Eve 2023 and it's been a sad year for me. I just got home from a party and am now listening to this melancholic song. I'm bawling my eyes out but it feels so good to release all the pent up sorrow and grief. Hopefully 2024 will be more kind to me. If you're reading this I wish you happiness and joy in 2024.

waved my daughter goodbye when I bought her to school today, when I entered the car, this song was playing in radio. I, mid 30, male, started crying. Had to look for that song again, and here I am... it tells the fears I have. Time never stops. Please, keep every pretious moment in your heart, before it is too late!

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

Lost my mom in 2020 due to heart attack. Now I'm about to graduate and i close my eyes, pretending she will be watching me from the seats as i stand on the stage, clapping and smiling at me and telling me she's proud of me of what i have become. I love you so much mama, i wish you were still here to hug me and tell me all these things. I promise to become someone you will be very proud of. :(

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