One small girl
In the way
Constantly hungry
Learning too quick
One small girl
Hard at play
She makes me smile
She scares me sick!
*
And they scolded and teased
And held her
And mended the clothes she tore
And the hut was crowded
And food was scarce
And somehow, their lives held more
One small girl
To live for.
One small girl
Not so small
Lost in those daydreams
Day after day
Her ears
Don't hear
She's far away
And I know that
She's getting older
I know that it's
Meant to be
And my arms
Can't hold her
And keep her small
But all that my
Heart can see...
Is one small girl
In a tree...
