LITTLE GIRL
Becoming a mummy was the most meaningful experience of my life!
Little Girl was inspired by the journey my daughter and I have shared. Lyrically, it expresses the emotions you go through personally as a mum and highlights some of the experiences your baby is going to encounter, like sound and taste. All these things are encapsulated with metaphors and simplicity. It’s a soothing song, especially the Lullaby Mix and Daddy’s Rocksteady Mix is a nod to dads.
Little Girl is a soulful, exciting celebration of daughters, nieces and any other special Little Girl! Hope it touches you like it still does me. I’m a proud mummy!
Little Girl – Lyrics
Look at you, looking around
Taking in new sights, new sounds for the first time
What can you smell? It’s me, Mummy
Come here my baby, don’t you be scared
Little girl - never thought that I’d say my
Little girl - never thought that I’d see my own
How beautiful you are, perfect to me
Overwhelming, overwhelming emotion to see you finally
And so scared was I, that you would survive your first ride
But here you are, here you are amazing, baby girl look at you
Little girl - never thought that I’d say my
Little girl
Little girl
There’s so much to say - so much to see
So much to feel - so much to hear
Wait till you touch - and wait till you taste
I’ll keep you safe - stay close to me
There’s so much to know - so much to do
So much to be - you won’t believe
How many there are – waiting to see
Waiting to meet you
My Little girl - never thought that I would see
My own - my own little girl
Lady you are so beautiful
You’re so beautiful
