A little girl, a little small for her age
A little too slow for the field day race
Momma`s waiting at the finish line
And wipes the teardrops from her eyes
She says, "You did just fine honey, that`s okay
"Sometimes life`s just that way
"You’re gonna lose the race from time to time
"But you`re always gonna find

"You can`t lose me
"Bet your life
"I am here and I will always be
"Just a wish away
"Wherever you go
"No matter how far
"My love is where you are
"You won`t be lost if you believe
"You can`t lose me"

Momma use to say "Girl it won`t be long
`"Til it`s time to go out on your own
"Chase your dreams find your place in life
"I know you`ll do just fine"
When that day finally came
There were things she needed to but could not say
So I whispered softly as I wiped
The tears from Momma`s eyes

"You can`t lose me
"Bet your life
"I am here and I will always be
"Just a wish away
"Wherever I go
"No matter how far
"My love is where you are
"You won`t be lost if you believe
"You can`t lose me"
