Catchin' Grasshoppers

I have a million errands that I need to run

Twins are tuggin' away at my sleeve

They wanna catch grasshoppers in the field

They whisper "daddy please"

I said boys your dad is busy

But something stirs inside

When I see those silent tears wellin' up in their eyes

And I forget now what it was I had to do

Couldn't wait another minute

There's a memory being made right here and I'm standing in it

I can't stop myself from smiling watching Justin's glee

As he bends down on the grass

Don't wanna let this moment pass

Let voice mail take my messages

Let sweet time tick away

If anybody wants me, anybody needs me

They'll have to wait

'Cause I'm out here on Hanson's field

And it's a beautiful day

Yeah, we're out here catchin' grasshoppers

They shout "hey daddy look, there's one let's catch it"

Laughing every tumble and fall

They're a vision of muddy delight

With those grass stains on their overalls

Jordan lets his green winged friends fly through his tiny hands

And he smiles from ear to ear the way that only children can

Let voice mail take my messages

Let sweet time tick away

If anybody wants me, if anybody needs me

They'll have to wait

'Cause I'm out here on Hanson's field

And it's a beautiful day

Yeah, we're out here catchin' grasshoppers

Years from now I won't remember this day

I won't recall the field

But I'll remember my children's eyes

Lighting up like stars when they were five

Yes, I'll remember (yes, I'll remember)

Catching grasshoppers

Let voice mail take my messages

Let sweet time tick away

If anybody wants me, anybody needs me

They'll have to wait

'Cause I'm out here on Hanson's field

And it's a beautiful day

Yeah, we're out here on Hanson's field

Wouldn't have it any other way

Yeah, we're out here catchin' grasshoppers
