Wrote this for my Mom for Mother's Day. I got so emotional I couldn't finish singing it to her. Luckily I was able to record it instead for her.
Lyrics
Mama’s Song Early nights at eight o’clock We’d lie in bed and you would talk about how one day I’d be a big girl like you You’d read out loud a storybook I would sleep and you’d take a look and think how one day I’d be a big girl like you Those days are in the past But I’ve tried to make them last And keep that innocence I had Little girls grow Mothers watch them go Then the girls find Mama was actually right Late at night at ten o’clock We laid in bed and then we talked about how suddenly I am a big girl like you I miss the days gone by But hold onto them, I try And keep that innocence Inside Little girls grow Mothers watch them go Then the girls find Mama was actually right A few years and I’ll go too And live a life separate from you But I don’t think I will forget the things Sparkling Singing loud Dancing round Imagining Flying up high Standing on top of the world A mama and her little girl Little girls grow Mothers watch them go Then the girls find Mama was actually right I’ll look back on the days gone by And you know that I’ll cry and I’ll cry Cuz I’ll want that innocence inside. ©Justine Dorsey 2012 All Rights Reserved
