My little girl - mummy’s version

And I wonder if she’ll think of me with a smile upon her face

Flashbacks to pizza dates by the sea, my little girl and me.

I wonder if she’ll show off all the things I took the time to teach her. Like loving is a choice and every day I chose her.

I hope she laughs when she thinks of me

And all the adventures that we had.

I hope she loves me through her teenage years

And remembers when she told me I was the best friend she’d ever had.

I hope she remembers she thought I was funny and doesn’t roll her eyes and slam the door.

Coz when I think of her, I think of my best friend.

Ribbons and twirls, cuddles that are all mine.

Coz when I think of her, I think of the grace that she brought me. The love that pushed me through.

And when I think of her, I can’t help but smile

That little girl of mine.

Oh that little girl of mine.

I hope she knows the door is always open

She can always come back home

I’ll be waiting, arms wide open…

Coz when I think of her, I think of the lessons that she taught me. The love that pushed me through.

And when I think of her, I can’t help but smile

That little girl of mine

Oh that little girl of mine

She’ll always be that little girl of mine.
