| I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand
|
| Felt so good in it, no bigger than a minute
|
| How it amazes me, you’re changing with every blink
|
| Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon.
|
| So, let them be little 'cause they’re only that way for awhile
|
| Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
|
| Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
|
| Oh, just let them be little.
|
| I’ve never felt so much in one little tender touch
|
| I live for those kisses, your prayers and your wishes
|
| And now that you’re teaching me things only a child can see
|
| Every night while we’re on our knees all I ask is please.
|
| Let them be little 'cause they’re only that way for awhile
|
| Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
|
| Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
|
| Oh, just let them be little.
|
| So innocent, a precious soul, you turn around and
|
| It’s time to let them go.
|
| So, let them be little 'cause they’re only that way for awhile
|
| Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
|
| Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
|
| Oh, just let them be little.
|
| Mmm, Let them be little… |
