My little one as the years go by
There may be times when your heart will cry
And if your in need of a word of cheer
You can always turn to me

My little one though I love you so
There'll come a day I must let you go
But you'll have my love for eternity
Little one you are everything to me

My darling I love you so much
So much there's nothing in the world nothing that I wouldn't do for you
And it gives me such a wonderful feeling to know your mine
Fills me with more happiness than I've ever known before
And each night as you slip off to dream land
I thank heaven for giving me you
spoken verse ends

My little one though I love you so
There'll come a day I must let you go
But you'll have my love for eternity
Little one you are everything to me
