Tippy toe down the stairs
sleepy little eyes and blonde bed head hair
just like me you like to stay up late

come on and snuggle up in my lap
brownies and ice cream for a midnight snack
we'll talk about your crush and you start to blush

oh I'll never forget those days..

when I'd

tuck you in real tight
kiss you on your head goodnight
hold you in my arms till you

close your eyes
my little baby girl
God gave me the world

to hold
an angel in disguise
little angel

angel in disguise

Trying your best to stand

on those teeny little feet as I held your hand
I closed my eyes and reopened them
Now you're leaving me for your first date

make sure she's home by 10
wear your seatbelts and call when the movie ends
oh you roll your eyes from the embarrassment

what happened to the simple days?
when I'd...



A few birthday's gone
fixing her hair and putting makeup on

like she did when she was just a kid
playing pretend
while this mirror reflects

a pearl white dress and her nervousness
I still see that little girl
my best friend & I'll never forget


how I'd tuck you in real tight...



can we go back
can we rewind the time

to dancing in our jammies
little giggles and smiles
mommy hold my hand

you're my very best friend
i love you this big
i do recall waiting so long

to have a love that i could hold
