Lyrics
Look at the Time
(Verse 1)
Oh, I remember tiny hands in mine
Rockin’ to sleep to a lullaby rhyme
Bubble bath giggles, teddy bear dreams
The world was magic, or so it seemed
(Verse 2)
First steps wobbled like a tipsy pup
Cheered so loud, they thought I’d erupt
First words came like a sweet surprise
"Mama, Dada"—stars in my eyes
(Chorus)
Oh, when they were small, life was bright
Lullabies turned into pillow fights
From birthday cakes to sandy shores
We laughed, we loved, we made it more
(Verse 3)
Off to school with a backpack too big
Grinning wide like a clever little sprig
Then came the call, "Your child’s in a bind,"
Turns out crayons don’t belong in a clock’s wind
(Chorus)
Oh, when they were small, life was bright
Lullabies turned into pillow fights
From birthday cakes to sandy shores
We laughed, we loved, we made it more
(Bridge)
Castles of sand, balloons in the air
Sticky little fingers tangled in my hair
Candlelit wishes, firework nights
Every single moment felt just right
(Verse 4)
Now they’re grown, but I still see
Those tiny hands reaching out for me
Though they stand tall, hearts don’t forget
The love we built, no end, no regret
(Final Chorus)
Oh, when they were small, life was bright
Lullabies turned into pillow fights
Though years may pass, one thing’s true
I’ll always love the little you
(Outro – soft and nostalgic)
I’ll always love the little you
