Darius Rucker - It Won't Be Like This For Long (Official Video)

[@joeriley5059]

June 12, 2 days after my daughter was born. I was taken care of her alone, no mother around! I heard this amazing song. It help me so much. Single father with a 2day old baby girl. She is now 10, and I'm still watching her grow. Thank you darius for this song!

I feel you there this song is so had to listen to without crying especially since IV got kids that ages match the first 2 verses (3 weeks and 3 years old) and I live in separate houses from both of their dads, I have the older one pretty much every night by myself and have to take him to preschool in the morning and the little one every night except when we stay over night at her dads so im up all night pretty much every night

10 years ago I was a tired, overwhelmed mom to a 6 month old; Oprah interviewed this man and he sang this song on the show. It has litteraly shaped the way I parent and made me focus on the blessing and wonder of parenting. Im now a mom of 3 and come here to listen every now and then for a recharge. Thank you Mr Rucker❤

[@josephhamblin3988]

I'm a single Dad raising 2 daughters for the last 14 years and this song is completely true. Live every day like it's a gift because it is!

[@CadeAustinMedia]

I'm a dad of two girls myself, 9 and 2. I've got my wife's help, but I was a single father at one point in time, so I understand. Man, time flies too fast. I am/have been a lot of things in this life, but "Daddy" is the greatest of all. Having kids is truly the one thing in this world that actually lives up to the hype. Wish nothing but the best for you and yours, brother.

I see most of the comments are parents, but I’m just 2 months shy of 21, single and child-free, and this song just evokes something for me. The “it won’t be like this for long. This phase is gonna fly by, if you can just to hold on” as he sings through the stages of adolescence lays comfort on my spirit as I keep finding myself facing low lows from childhood up to now. I’ve only been in this Earth for 2 decades, yet I already feel so very exhausted from the moments I’ve had navigate through for the past 13 years. But I look forward to the day where I have some inner peace, so I’m gonna continue to hold on. Thank you for this song

[@Old70sdude]

I have a 7 year old daughter and this song brings a tear to my eye every time. Every day she asks me if my day is complete and I say no... then she gives me a big hug and kiss and says "now I made your day complete". It's the highlight of my day! I'm so scared that this will end, and some day it will. I just hope and pray that I can raise her well enough that she doesn't hate me and always knows that she will always be my baby girl. Regardless, great song. I'm a big fan of Rucker's.

410ytlmustang Every genre has good music you'd be ignorant to think otherwise.

[@gregorylagrange]

I like many different kinds of music. But country fans are the quickest to express their dismay of how people don't like country while either simultaneously or right after expressing their contempt and dismay of people liking any other type of music. Darius Rucker is one of the top song writers out their, but people like what they're going to like.

[@alika207]

This is such a beautiful and powerful song! When he sings this song, I think about my own life. I was born three months prematurely in 1991, and I’ve been blind since birth.

Life is short and life is precious. A person should enjoy every moment of life while he or she has the chance to.

[@melm6797]

This song is brilliant! Just one phrase “it won’t be like this for long” perfectly emphasizes how we sometimes want time to speed up and yet slow down at the same time. Difficult phases won’t last forever, yet, neither will the wonderful times. My daughter just turned 13. This song makes me cry every time. She’s leaving another stage and entering a new one. I’m nervous for these teenage years but I know….. it won’t be like this for long.

The song make me cry when I first heard it. I've got a little girl named cherish Ambrosia that means the world to me. I know she's going to grow up one day and I'm going to hate that

[@lynseyjones9873]

My daughter just turned 18. This song has been my life since the day she was born and I first held her in the hospital. We looked at each other and right then I promised her I would take care of her forever. Not many things in this world make me cry, but I whenever I listen to this song I absolutely break down. Right down to my little Emma holding onto my leg and not letting go her first day of school. I cried when I got in my truck, and there's been endless times when the incredible love and sentimentality I feel makes the tears start again. This song hits me very hard - it seems every verse, every word was written for me. It's exactly how I've felt and what I've experienced. It's unbelievable...thank you Darius for reminding me what really matters in life by writing such a beautiful song about a father's love for his daughter.

I have two little girls and my oldest still wants to sleep in my room. My youngest is only 5 months old. They'll always be my baby girls.

Hello there! How are you doing today? It’s nice to meet you on here..

[@ashleyrenee2542]

My twin baby girls were born micro preemies at 24 weeks, and are in the nicu for at least the next 90 days. And I just cant stop playing this song and crying. I used to listen when my son was born 4 yrs ago and cry too, but knowing the nightmare we are suffering now wont be like this for long, gives me hope and I don't think Darius understands what this song means to me right now. Hang in there my little fighter girls, it wont be like this for long!!

[@alika207]

I was a preemie also, and I was born blind. How are you and your family making out? You may always reach out if you would like advice, especially if they have been diagnosed with disabilities.

I bought this CD (yes CD, lol) for my husband for Father's Day the year it was released. I remember thinking the time is going to go by so fast so please let us soak it all in even through those really tough days. Our daughter was very clingy and we never felt like we got a moments peace but she is now 14 and wants nothing to do with us! Now, I wish I could go back to those days sometimes. These teenage years came way to quick!

I listening to this song when my son was born 4 years ago in just a couple of days. I didn’t believe him and this song is nothing but true. I’m listening to it again with my sons little brother and as rough as it is, I’m trying to hold on to him being so tiny and new. He’s 3 weeks old. This song has helped so much.

I went to his concert in Cincinnati this week. I only listen to oldies so I hadn't heard it before. My husband died 6 months ago. Our daughter had him wrapped around her finger. So many photos of her grabbing his leg or on clinging to his back, even brushing his hair(bald head!). I just bawled during the whole song. This would have been their song.
