Lyrics
Every little now and then I?m gonna get my fingers burnt
So don?t lie awake and worry
Every little thing I do is gonna be a thing I learn
I know you?ll be there for me
Just put your arms around me
Remember all the funny stories that you told to me, your little girl
Well now the storytellers lying on my bedroom floor
Don?t cry Daddy
You know I couldn?t love you any more
Don?t cry Daddy
I?m always gonna be your little girl
I?m always gonna be your little girl
Every little now and then I?m gonna do things for myself
And by the way I?m sorry
Every little thing I said I never meant to cause you pain
I lie awake and worry
Just put your arms around me
When I was young you told me there would come a day when you would not be there
But you were wrong I?ve got your picture on my bedroom wall
Don?t cry Daddy
You know I couldn?t love you anymore
Don?t cry Daddy
I?m always gonna be your little girl
I?m always gonna be your little girl
I?m always gonna be your little girl
