Letras
Playdough rainbows and paper wings
I remember all of your favorite things
Like teatime with Pooh Bear and Charlie Brown
Barbie Band-Aids and princess gowns
And here I am trying to hold the hands of time
They're moving so fast that I'm falling behind
And I know that you're ready to take a step
But I'm not ready for that yet
All I see is my little girl in tears and curls
Watching you grow before my eyes
Letting you go one Barbie Band-Aid at a time
Bedtime stories of Little Bo Peep
Saying prayers for the little lost sheep
Mama's lipstick and skinned-up knees
Secret crushes and diaries
Your first date and your first goodnight kiss
And I can't believe we're already to this
And I know that you're ready to take a step
But I'm not ready for that yet
All I see is my little girl in heels and curls
Watching you grow before my eyes
Letting you go one Barbie Band-Aid at a time
Something borrowed, something blue
Oh, but couldn't we have just a minute or two
An hour or two, a year or two
I know that you're ready, it's really time
To watch you spread your wings and fly
Heaven knows I'm so proud of you
But it hurts me too
Seeing you grown before my eyes
Letting you go one Barbie Band-Aid at a time
