I remember the times we ran around in our Pjs
Having the time of are lives
The way you would read me a story then kissed me goodnight
You brushed my hair, cleaned my teeth
What a lucky girl I am?
With the magic fairy always cleaning my room
And having the same old fairy
Cleaning my new school shoes
I never said how much I love you
You would tell me that I am special even when I was bold
You would hug me so tight I could never get cold
You love me
Just as I am
I always knew you had a plan
I love you so dearly
This song is to let you know
How much I love you
I hope that it shows
Now I am fourteen
I still need my mum
We sing and we dance and we have so much fun
She’s more than a mum to me
She’s my best mate
The bond between us no one could ever break
My mum has eight children
She's has brought us up well
When people meet us
I know they can tell
You would tell me that I am special even when I was bold
You would hug me so tight I could never get cold
You love me
Just as I am
I always knew you had a plan
I love you so dearly
This song is to let you know
How much I love you
I hope that it shows
I am now a young woman and I am proud to say
I would not change a thing from my child hood days
Maybe show her more show her how much I care
I was blessed she was always there
You would tell me that I am special even when I was bold
You would hug me so tight I could never get cold
You love me
Just as i am
I always knew you had a plan
I love you so dearly
This song is to let you know
How much I love you
