Verse 1 We waited on this day a long, long while, Guess Heaven saved its sweetest smile. Mom and Dad just laugh and grin, "Better late than never," once again. My little brother's a daddy now, Still hard to wrap my head around. His wife's got that brand-new glow... Watching our whole family grow. Verse 2 Born beneath those Texas skies, Now New Hampshire's home for those little eyes. From southern sunshine to falling snow, She's got four seasons left to know. Tiny boots and maple leaves, Apple orchards in the autumn breeze. One little girl... Two different worlds... Growing up where her story leads. Chorus Little feet running through the hall, Little hands reaching for us all. Funny how one little heartbeat Can make a whole family feel complete. One sweet laugh... One little smile... Makes every mile worthwhile. Who knew someone so small... Could change everything? Verse 3 Morning comes before the sun, She's already having way too much fun. That squeaky voice fills every room, Like she's got her own little marching tune. Funny thing, if you've ever met her mom and dad... Neither one's a morning soul. Guess somebody up above just grinned... And turned her mornings up to ten. Verse 4 When it's time to sit down and eat, She turns dinner into a masterpiece. A little on her nose, a little in her hair, Somehow there's food everywhere. Everyone's laughing, nobody minds, These are the moments we'll hold onto in time. Verse 5 Every puppy and every cat she sees, Real or stuffed, they're her favorite things. No words yet, but she lets us know... With that little squeal that steals the show. Bridge Yesterday she learned to walk... Today she's running through the house. Tomorrow she'll be chasing dreams... Before we even figure it out. Yesterday she learned to walk... Today she's running away with all our hearts. Final Chorus Little feet running through the hall, Now she's standing ten feet tall... At least that's how it feels to me, Watching who she's gonna be. One sweet laugh... One bright light... Making every family gathering right. Who knew someone so small... Could change everything? Outro One day you'll hear this song, Wonder what all the fuss was about. You won't remember these first little steps... But sweetheart... We always will.
