Lyrics Let Them Be Little - Billy Dean
I
can
remember
when
you
fit
in
the
palm
of
my
hand.
You
felt
so
good
in
it;
no
bigger
than
a
minute.
How
it
amazes
me
you're
changin'
with
every
blink.
Faster
than
a
flower
blooms,
they
grow
up
all
too
soon.
So
let
them
be
little,
'Cause
they're
only
that
way
for
a
while.
Give
'em
hope,
give
them
praise,
Give
them
love
every
day.
Let
'em
cry,
let
'em
giggle,
Let
'em
sleep
in
the
middle,
Oh,
but
let
them
be
little.
I
never
felt
so
much
in
one
little
tender
touch.
I
live
for
those
kisses,
your
prayers
an'
your
wishes.
An'
now
you're
teachin'
me
how
only
a
child
can
see.
Tonight,
while
we're
on
our
knees,
all
I
ask
is:
Please,
let
them
be
little,
'Cause
they're
only
that
way
for
a
while.
Give
them
hope,
give
them
praise,
Give
them
love
every
day.
Let
'em
cry,
let
'em
giggle,
Let
'em
sleep
in
the
middle,
Oh,
but
let
them
be
little.
The
so
innocent,
precious
soul:
You
turn
around,
an'
it's
time
to
let
them
go.
So
let
them
be
little,
'Cause
they're
only
that
way
for
a
while.
Give
them
hope,
give
'em
praise,
Give
them
love
every
day.
Let
'em
cry,
let
'em
giggle,
Let
them
sleep
in
the
middle,
Oh,
but
let
them
be
little.
Let
them
be
little.
