First steps, first words Seems like yesterday you were just a girl Skinned knees, climbing trees All those memories so close to me Now you're a woman on your own All in love and nearly gone But you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart Sixteen, first car Twenty-one and there's a broken heart High heels, strong will In my eyes I see a young child still But you're a woman on your own All in love and nearly gone But you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart So I say a prayer everyday That God will guide you as you find your way You know that I'm near Anytime my love is always here 'Cause you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart Forever in my heart Forever in my heart
