Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Oh, but let them be little
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
Tonight while we're on our knees all I ask is please
I live for those kisses, your prayers and your wishes
Oh, but let them be little
How it amazes me, you're changing with every blink
Give them hope, give them praise, give them love every day
So, let them be little 'cause they're only that way for awhile
Oh, just let them be little
So innocent, a precious soul, you turn around and
Let them be little 'cause they're only that way for awhile
And now that you're teaching me how only a child can see
It's time to let them go
Let them cry, let them giggle, let them sleep in the middle
I've never felt so much in one little tender touch
So, let them be little 'cause they're only that way for awhile
