You tucked me in and kissed me good night.

You said it all happened in the blink of an eye.

You’ve grown up too fast -

It’s hard to believe that you’re my Big Girl now.

Yeah, yeah I’ve heard it all before.

Be happy of how I’ve grown up,

I could never ask you to forget the past.

But now I’m asking you to be in my future

-

I’m always going to be that little girl who,

needs you to hold her when she’s scared.

I’m still going to be your girl,

who will need you to wipe away her tears.

I’m gonna be your baby girl who

will need you to chase away her fears.

And I will always be your little girl.

-

I’m staring up at you as you lean over me

and I’m trying to figure out if I want it that way.

You’re always there for me,

but sometimes I just want to push you away.

I love you, you’re my father, you’re my heart

but I’m not sure if I want you by my side all the time.

But for now, you’re always there for me

like no other man would.

-

I’m always going to be that little girl who,

needs you to hold her when she’s scared.

I’m still going to be your girl,

who will need you to wipe away her tears.

I’m gonna be your baby girl who

will need you to chase away her fears.

And I will always be your little girl.

-

You’re my hope when things are down

and my star in my black, sad sky.

You’re always there for me.

-

I’m always going to be that little girl who,

needs you to hold her when she’s scared.

I’m still going to be your girl,

who will need you to wipe away her tears.

I’m gonna be your baby girl who

will need you to chase away her fears.

And I will always be your little girl.
