Little Space for Me

Oh my mama told me to be nice and kind

She never meant to laugh but did sometimes

But to protect me from the world outside

I wouldn't blame her

Oh I learn a different lesson every day

How do I find the strength to live this way?

I guess I had to figure out the same

How do we grow if we don't know

Were you ever gonna tell me happiness can make you sad?

I bet you never thought your heart would be in somebody's hands

You didn't have a lot but you know you were in love

And that's how it's supposed to be

But you made a little space for me

Oh my daddy taught me how to ride a bike

Told me it's okay to cry sometimes

Lost his patience maybe once or twice

But I wouldn't blame him

Oh he always told me that I'm going far

Whatever happens, I'm his little star

And I told him not to work so hard

How do we grow if we don't know

Were you ever gonna tell me happiness can make you sad?

I bet you never thought your heart would be in somebody's hands

You didn't have a lot but you know you were in love

And that's how it's supposed to be

But you made a little space for me

But you made a little space for me
