It seems like only yesterday

It seems like only yesterday
I sit to pause and think.
You were spending time at play
The years passed in but a blink.
The dolls and fluffy teddy bears
Are now mostly packed away.
It's movies, dates and what to wear
That keeps your time these days.

It seems like only yesterday
You fell and skinned your knee.
With a kiss it was all okay
And off you ran carefree.
Mindless of the time that's passed,
You've grown in front of me
From that little girl who ran too fast
To the woman that I now see.

It seems like only yesterday
Where has the time all gone?
Soon you will be going away
Although I'll try to hold on.
Now you have your own life to make.
Remember I love you, and see
That whatever path your life may take,
You're always my little girl to me.
