Nils Lofgren - Little On Up Lyrics lyrics

rate me

I remember your birthday

your first breath out of the womb

we were all crying, you were screaming

it was the most beautiful tune

God needed mother in heaven

suddenly it was just you and I

I felt so shattered and useless

if not for you, I'd have surely died

Yeah it's a mountain when life changes forever

your mom's love was such I felt erased

but someone had to feed and love you

though overwhelmed I did it face to face

Yeah we did it face to face

somehow we found enough

that no matter what love, we'd have it always

from little on up

You were reading and writing

before your first day of school

you weren't afraid of the growing

and I felt so proud of you

remember your first boyfriend

knew no man could ever be enough

We talked the whole thing through

we stayed close from little on up

Yeah we did it face to face

somehow we found enough

that no matter what love we'd have it always

from little on up

Someday we'll be sittin' round in heaven

Mother will smile and say we did good

through the good times, the bad times, and the last times

we loved each other hard as we could

Yeah we did it face to face

somehow we found enough

that no matter what love we'd have it always

from little on up

No matter what love, we'd have it always

from little on up
