I held you close in the quiet night
Tiny hands wrapped in mine so tight
I swore I'd freeze this moment in time
But the days keep changing like the sky
First steps turned to running fast
Lullabies now in the past
You're reaching high, chasing dreams
But don't forget where you've been
Time slips through my fingers like the ocean waves
You're growing up, but my love remains
No matter how far, no matter how wide
You'll always be my little light
Your laughter echoes down the hall
Filling spaces once so small
Every milestone, a step away
Yet my heart begs you to stay
Bedtime stories, outgrown shoes
Trading childhood for something new
The world is calling, I see it too
But I hope you know, I'm always with you
Time slips through my fingers like the ocean waves
You're growing up, but my love remains
No matter how far, no matter how wide
You'll always be my little light
Go on, my love, chase the sun
Write your story, have your fun
But if you ever lose your way
Just call my name, I'll always stay
Time slips through my fingers, but you're still my heart
No matter the distance, we're never apart
Through every season, every night
You'll always be my little light
So shine, my love, shine so bright
But know you're always wrapped in my light
