Little Girl

verse 1:

The warmth of your hand entangled between my fingers

The smell of your strong perfume and all your cooking lingers

The sweet smile you gave me every now and then

Made me wonder if you’ll always be my best friend.

But then came me growing up and you growing old,

The stories now faded that once were told.

Chorus: 

Life got harder and you let me go

Watching alcohol pour down your throat

The words of wisdom, and late night talks,

I tried to speak to you,

I guess my kind words just never came through.

I’m your little girl, your little girl your little girl.

I’m your little girl, your little girl.

Verse 2: 

The pills you popped and days spent lying on the floor;

Unconscious, unforgettable, I wanted to see no more.

Your little girl slowly watched you die, tears streaming down my face.

You’re a memory in the back of my mind, something I can’t erase.
Why I watched and never told, is something I can't give away.
Why?
"Babygirl, screw you. If you ever tell, you won't live another day."

I wish you better, and your soul survived,

But sadly that little girl slowly became deprived.

Verse 3/ hook: 

Although you're sick, and made harsh mistakes,

Mama you’re my memory I will never erase.

You’re my wilted flower I hope someday will grow,

Because a mother’s love between her daughter,

And a daughter’s love between her mother, that will never go.
