remember when I was a little girl...
Growin up livin in my own little world...
So it seemed, I had my dolls and dreams...
Momma was always there to comfort me
Give me love, there wasnt nothin quite like it
In the world, that I knew of..
Before I knew it I was standin in my teens
Sweet little boy with his strong young arms holdin me
I remember the first time I felt his kiss
Oh, it like to drove me crazy
And I remember sayin I never felt nothin like this
So I went and asked momma, "can you tell me what it means?"
She said "youre in love and thats every little girls dream"
Baby what you found is every little girls dream
So I said, "Momma does love ever last?"
She says, "worry about now and let the future come to pass"
Just understand and enjoy what youve found
And listen to it as long is your heart is asound
